Ibrani 6:6

6:6 and then have committed apostasy, ³  to renew them again to repentance, since ⁴  they are crucifying the Son of God for themselves all over again ⁵  and holding him up to contempt.

Ibrani 7:13-14

7:13 Yet the one these things are spoken about belongs to ⁶  a different tribe, and no one from that tribe ⁷  has ever officiated at the altar. 7:14 For it is clear that our Lord is descended from Judah, yet Moses said nothing about priests in connection with that tribe.

Ibrani 9:2

9:2 For a tent was prepared, the outer one, ⁸  which contained ⁹  the lampstand, the table, and the presentation of the loaves; this ¹⁰  is called the holy place.

Ibrani 11:17

11:17 By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac. He had received the promises, ¹¹  yet he was ready to offer up ¹²  his only son.

Ibrani 11:38

11:38 (the world was not worthy of them); they wandered in deserts and mountains and caves and openings in the earth.

[3:7]  ¹ sn The following quotation is from Ps 95:7b-11.

[3:7]  ² tn Grk “today if you hear his voice.”

[6:6]  ³ tn Or “have fallen away.”

[6:6]  ⁴ 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]  ⁵ tn Grk “recrucifying the son of God for themselves.”

[7:13]  ⁶ tn Grk “shares in.”

[7:13]  ⁷ tn Grk “from which no one.”

[9:2]  ⁸ tn Grk “the first,” in order of approach in the ritual.

[9:2]  ⁹ tn Grk “in which [were].”

[9:2]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “which,” describing the outer tent.

[11:17]  ¹¹ tn Here “received the promises” refers to the pledges themselves, not to the things God promised.

[11:17]  ¹² tn Grk “he was offering up.” The tense of this verb indicates the attempt or readiness to sacrifice Isaac without the actual completion of the deed.
