John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 6:1-20
Warning and Encouragement1. Leaving.. let us go on] RV ’let us cease to speak of.. and press on.’ The words are either an exhortation to the readers to advance beyond the elementary stage of Christian doctrine, or a resolution on the part of the writer to omit the discussion of rudimentary truths and to proceed to more advanced subjects. The latter is probably correct, in which case the ’us’ is that of authorship. But though he determines to omit the treatment of elementary doctrines, he... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 6:7
(7) For the earth.—Rather, For land which has drunk in. Land which not only receives but also drinks in abundance of rain (Deuteronomy 11:11), in such a climate as is here thought of, must either “bring forth herbage” or be condemned as irretrievably barren.By whom it is dressed.—Rather, for whom it is also tilled. This clause is added to show that nothing is wanting on the part of the owner or of the tillers of the land.Receiveth blessing from God.—Receives as a reward a share in the blessing... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 6:8
(8) But that which beareth.—Rather, But if it bear thorns and briars it is rejected. We are told that the presence of briars (i.e., caltrops) is a sure evidence of a poor soil, on which labour will be wasted. The words are partially a quotation from Genesis 3:18. The change of translation here is important; if that very land, which has drunk in the abundant rain and has received careful culture still prove unfruitful, it is rejected. Man can do no more; and the curse of God is “near”; its end... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 6:9
(9) Better things.—Literally, the better things; that is, the alternative spoken of in Hebrews 6:7. He has not written in despair, but for warning only; believing that to them belongs, not the state which is “nigh unto a curse,” but that which borders on salvation (Hebrews 5:9). read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 6:10
(10) In expressing the ground of his hope he does not directly say, “For I have heard of your fruitfulness;” he implies this, and then, in accordance with the parable of Hebrews 6:7, he declares that God will surely bestow the promised reward. Herein lies his hope. Man’s work cannot in itself merit reward from God, but (1 John 1:9) the righteous God cannot neglect His own promise and law that such works shall receive reward.Your work and labour of love.—The best MSS. omit “labour”; so that the... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 6:11
(11) Full assurance.—Rather, fulness (full productiveness) of hope (Hebrews 10:22). His desire is that the zeal which they have manifested in works of love may be directed toward the attainment of the full harvest of Christian hope—may be shown until the very end (Hebrews 3:6; Hebrews 3:14). read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 6:12
(12) That ye be not slothful.—Rather, that ye become not sluggish. The same word is used as in Hebrews 5:11, there applied to apprehension of truth, here to the Christian hope and life; if the truth be not welcomed, there will be no vigour in the life.Followers.—Better, imitators. (Comp. Hebrews 13:7; 1 Corinthians 11:1, et al.). They are not the first to whom “hope” has been given, and who have needed zeal that they might not fail of their hope. As in Hebrews 11:0 the writer appeals to... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 6:13
(13) The connection seems to be this: “You, like them, have promises—promises to which God has given all possible certainty; you, like them, can attain the fulfilment only through faith and patient waiting.”For when God made promise.—It is better to follow the words literally, For when to Abraham God had made promise. Abraham is chosen for special mention as the most illustrious example of those who “inherit the promises” (comp.John 8:58; John 8:58); also because (1) the assurance given to him... read more
