希伯来书 4:9-10 RCUVSS

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 4:10

‘For he who is entered into his rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from his.’ It is true that this could refer simply to one who has died in Christ, but it is then semi-redundant. Why introduce this idea at this stage? But the immediacy of the whole passage suggests rather a living present experience, which contrasts with a past experience of ‘dead works’, and furthermore God did not enter His rest by dying, but by having completed His creative work. In God’s case it... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 4:1-13

Hebrews 4:1-1 Chronicles : continues the exposition of Psalms 95. The writer has already dealt with the warning contained therein; now he shows that this very warning implies a promise. In declaring that His rest is withheld from those who had proved unworthy of it, God would have us know that it is still in store. The fulfilment of that promise which had been offered in vain to ancient Israel is reserved for the people of Christ. Hebrews 4:1 f. Transition from warning to promise. The warning... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 4:9

Here the Spirit concludes from his former proofs, that there is a more excellent rest revealed to faith in the gospel, which is remaining, future, and to come, and will surely and most certainly do so; though it be behind, yet it will be enjoyed. A sabbatism, which is a state and season of a most glorious rest, {see Hebrews 4:10} shall be enjoyed by sincere believers, the true Israel of God, of whom he is the Proprietor, and who are for their eternal state so excellently holy, and of so Divine... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 4:10

This proveth the foregoing consequence of a rest remaining, from the nature of a true rest, which is a resting from all labours, which the Israelites did not in Canaan, therefore it is yet to come. For every true believer who hath full possession of God’s rest, where God is satisfying of them in bliss, they rest in his loves, of which the sabbath and Canaan were but types. He also hath ceased from his own works; such true Christians have ceased and rested from all their sinful works and... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Hebrews 4:1-11

SOUL-RESTCRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL NOTESTHIS chapter should not have been separated from the previous one, as it is a continuation of the hortatory passage. There is, however, a break in the treatment of the subject. In the clause Hebrews 4:1-13 the writer has in mind possible objections to his mode of treating Old Testament Scriptures. It might be said (1) that the “rest” spoken of was merely quiet possession of an earthly inheritance, and had no deeper spiritual applications. Or it might be... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 4:1-11

Hebrews 4:1-11 Fear and Rest. I. The worldly man neither fears nor loves God. He sometimes imagines he loves God, because he is not afraid, because he is not awed by the holy majesty of God, and does not tremble at the righteous condemnation of the law. The soul which is roused and convinced of sin fears God. This fear, created by the Spirit, has in it already, though concealed and feeble, elements of trust and affection. There is in it, as there is in repentance, a longing after the peace of... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 4:9

Hebrews 4:9 The Earthly Sabbath: a Type of the Heavenly. I. The heavenly blessedness is Sabbath blessedness, because it includes rest. The fundamental idea of the Sabbath is rest; and this is the idea which the Apostle makes most prominent in this place, because he uses Sabbatism, interchangeably with the word which signifies cessation or repose. But it can never be granted that mere physical or animal rest was the sole or even chief thing enjoined by the Sabbath law under any dispensation. It... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 4:9-10

Hebrews 4:9-10 Entrance into God's Rest. We have here: I. The Divine rest: "He hath ceased from his own works, as God did from His." (1) Rest belongs necessarily to the Divine nature. It is the deep tranquillity of a nature self-sufficing in its infinite beauty, calm in its everlasting strength, placid in its deepest joy, still in its mightiest energy; loving without passion, willing without decision or change, acting without effort, quiet and moving everything; making all things new, and... read more

DISCOURSE: 2283THE REST THAT REMAINS FOR GOD’S PEOPLEHebrews 4:9. There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.THE servants of God possess many distinguished privileges. Their state in this world is far happier than that of the ungodly; but there is an infinitely richer portion reserved for them hereafter. To this David had respect in that awful denunciation [Note: Psalms 95:11.], whence it appears, that though prefigured by other rests, it remains yet to be enjoyed [Note: The... read more
