Berean Standard Bible

“There remains, then, a Sabbath rest for the people of God.”

Hebrews 4:9

Save as image

Study note

This verse comes in the middle of a long reflection on the rest promised to God's people. The author points out that Joshua's generation entered the land, yet Scripture still speaks of a rest to come, which means that the ultimate rest was not fulfilled by that entry.
