Berean Standard Bible

“Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following the same pattern of disobedience.”

Hebrews 4:11

Save as image

Study note

The author has explained that a Sabbath rest still remains for the people of God, one that Israel failed to enter because of unbelief and that Joshua did not fully give. He describes God's own rest after creation as a pattern.
