希伯来书 4:9-10 RCUVSS

The Pulpit Commentary - Hebrews 4:8-9

For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have spoken afterward of another day. The conclusion is now drawn: There remaineth therefore a sabbath rest for the people of God; the true nature of the rest intended being beautifully denoted by the word σαββατισμὸς , which refers to the Divine rest "from the foundation of the world," while the offer of it to true believers always, and not to the Israelites only, is intimated by the phrase, "the people of God." read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Hebrews 4:9

Rest a future portion of the Christian believer. "There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God." We have already spoken of the rest which is the present privilege of the Christian: "We which have believed do enter into that rest." But that does not satisfy all our desire and aspiration. We crave a deeper, fuller, more perfect rest than we enjoy here. The higher life at present is one of intense and, at times, almost painful longing. Without the prospect of something better than... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Hebrews 4:9

The true sabbatic rest. Note here the word employed— σαββατισμὸς . This the only occurrence of the word. It is preceded and followed by another word for rest— κατάπαυσις . There must be something in the abrupt utterance for just once of this word in Hebrews 4:9 . The different word must emphasize difference of meaning. The difference seems to lie here, that there are two kinds of rest to be thought of—one the rest from toil and exertion, the rest to the weary; the other rest of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Hebrews 4:10

For he that is entered into his rest (God's, as before) hath himself also rested from his works, as from his own God . There are two ways of understanding this verse. Its general intention is, indeed, clear. It accounts for the use of the word σαββατισμὸς which precedes, expressing that the true meaning of "God's rest" is not satisfied by any earthly rest, but only by one like his. The question is whether the verse is to be taken as a general proposition or as referring specifically to... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Hebrews 4:9

There remaineth, therefore, a rest - This is the conclusion to which the apostle comes. The meaning is this, that according to the Scriptures there is “now” a promise of rest made to the people of God. It did not pertain merely to those who were called to go to the promised land, nor to those who lived in the time of David, but it is “still” true that the promise of rest pertains to “all” the people of God of every generation. The “reasoning” by which the apostle comes to this conclusion is... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Hebrews 4:10

For he that is entered into rest - That is, the man who is so happy as to reach heaven, will enjoy a rest similar to what God had when he finished the work of creation. It will be:(1)A cessation from toil; and,(2)It will be a rest similar to that of God - the same kind of enjoyment, the same freedom from care, anxiety, and labor.How happy then are they who have entered into heaven! Their toils are over. Their labors are done. Never again will they know fatigue. Never more will they feel anxious... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Hebrews 4:9

Hebrews 4:9. There remaineth therefore a rest, &c. Since neither of the two former rests is intended by David, and there was no new rest for the people to enter into in the days of David, and the psalm wherein these words are recorded is acknowledged to be prophetical of the days of the Messiah, it unavoidably follows that there is such a rest remaining; and not only a spiritual rest, in the peace and love of God, and in the enjoyment of communion with him entered into by believing in... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Hebrews 4:10

Hebrews 4:10. For that rest of which we were speaking, may properly be called a sabbatical rest, or the celebration of a sabbath; for he that hath entered into this his final and complete rest, hath ceased from his own works From all his labours and toils; as God did from his In that first seventh- day, which, in commemoration of it, was appointed to be kept holy in all future ages. Probably God appointed men to rest on the seventh day, not only in commemoration of his having... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Hebrews 4:1-13

Warning against unbelief (3:7-4:13)The writer warns his disheartened Jewish readers with some reminders from Israel’s experiences in the wilderness (see Exodus 17:1-7; Numbers 20:1-13; Psalms 95:7-11). Those experiences show that people who appear to be God’s people may be so unbelieving, bitter and complaining, that they cannot enjoy the inheritance God has promised (7-11). They should resist the tendency to unbelief and stubbornness, by encouraging one another to maintain their faith with... read more
