SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:18
¿Y a cuáles juró que no entrarían en su Reposo, sino a aquellos que no obedecieron?
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Hebrew 3:18
Verse 18. To whom sware he] God never acts by any kind of caprice; whenever he pours out his judgments, there are the most positive reasons to vindicate his conduct. Those whose carcasses fell in the wilderness were they who had sinned.
And those who did not enter into his rest were those who believed not.
God is represented here as swearing that they should not enter in, in order to show the determinate nature of his purpose, the reason on which it was founded, and the height of the aggravation which occasioned it.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 18. And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest , etc..] As in ( Psalm 95:11 (see Gill on “ Hebrews 3:11”)), but to them that believed not ? the Lord; notwithstanding the signs and wonders he showed among them, they would not be persuaded by Moses and Aaron, by Joshua and Caleb, to be still and quiet, to cease murmuring, and submit to the will of God, and believe in him; they were disobedient, stubborn, and rebellious, and would go up, when they were bid not to go up; for which reason God swore in his wrath that they should not enter into the good land. Unbelief is a source of sin, and cause of judgment, being greatly provoking to God.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 14-19 - The saints' privilege is, they are made partakers of Christ, that is of the Spirit, the nature, graces, righteousness, and life of Christ they are interested in all Christ is, in all he has done, or will do The same spirit with which Christians set out in the ways of God, the should maintain unto the end. Perseverance in faith is the bes evidence of the sincerity of our faith. Hearing the word often is means of salvation, yet, if not hearkened to, it will expose more to the Divine wrath. The happiness of being partakers of Christ and his complete salvation, and the fear of God's wrath and eternal misery should stir us up to persevere in the life of obedient faith. Let u beware of trusting to outward privileges or professions, and pray to be numbered with the true believers who enter heaven, when all others fai because of unbelief. As our obedience follows according to the power of our faith, so our sins and want of care are according to the prevailin of unbelief in us __________________________________________________________________
