Hebrews 6:6

6:6 and then have committed apostasy, ¹  to renew them again to repentance, since ²  they are crucifying the Son of God for themselves all over again ³  and holding him up to contempt.

Hebrews 12:17

12:17 For you know that ⁴  later when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no opportunity for repentance, although he sought the blessing ⁵  with tears.

Hebrews 6:1

6:1 Therefore we must progress beyond ⁶  the elementary ⁷  instructions about Christ ⁸  and move on ⁹  to maturity, not laying this foundation again: repentance from dead works and faith in God,

[6:6]  ¹ tn Or “have fallen away.”

[6:6]  ² tn Or “while”; Grk “crucifying…and holding.” The Greek participles here (“crucifying…and holding”) can be understood as either causal (“since”) or temporal (“while”).

[6:6]  ³ tn Grk “recrucifying the son of God for themselves.”

[12:17]  ⁴ tn Or a command: “for understand that.”

[12:17]  ⁵ tn Grk “it,” referring either to the repentance or the blessing. But the account in Gen 27:34-41 (which the author appeals to here) makes it clear that the blessing is what Esau sought. Thus in the translation the referent (the blessing) is specified for clarity.

[6:1]  ⁷ tn Grk “Therefore leaving behind.” The implication is not of abandoning this elementary information, but of building on it.

[6:1]  ⁸ tn Or “basic.”

[6:1]  ⁹ tn Grk “the message of the beginning of Christ.”

[6:1]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “leaving behind…let us move on.”
