Ibrani 4:10-11

4:10 For the one who enters God’s ¹  rest has also rested from his works, just as God did from his own works. 4:11 Thus we must make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by following the same pattern of disobedience.

Ibrani 6:9

6:9 But in your case, dear friends, even though we speak like this, we are convinced of better things relating to salvation.

Ibrani 11:8

11:8 By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place he would later receive as an inheritance, and he went out without understanding where he was going.

Ibrani 12:17

12:17 For you know that ²  later when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no opportunity for repentance, although he sought the blessing ³  with tears.

[4:10]  ¹ tn Grk “his”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[12:17]  ² tn Or a command: “for understand that.”

[12:17]  ³ 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.
