Context — The Sabbath Rest

4For somewhere He has spoken about the seventh day in this manner: “And on the seventh day God rested from all His works.” 5And again, as He says in the passage above: “They shall never enter My rest.”

6Since, then, it remains for some to enter His rest, and since those who formerly heard the good news did not enter because of their disobedience,

7God again designated a certain day as “Today,” when a long time later He spoke through David as was just stated: “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.” 8For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken later about another day.

Hebrews 4:6 Summary

[Hebrews 4:6 is telling us that some people did not get to experience God's rest because they did not obey Him. This rest is a special kind of rest that God wants to give us, where we can trust Him and not have to worry about anything. We can see this in Psalm 37:7, where it says to 'rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him'. We need to make sure we are obeying God's voice and not hardening our hearts, so we can experience this rest for ourselves, as Jesus says in Matthew 11:28-30, 'Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest'.]

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 'rest' being referred to in Hebrews 4:6?

The 'rest' refers to a spiritual rest that God has prepared for His people, as seen in Psalm 95:11 and Exodus 33:14, where God promises to give His people rest if they obey Him.

Who are the people that 'formerly heard the good news' in this verse?

The people being referred to are the Israelites who heard the good news of God's promise to give them rest in the Promised Land, but did not enter into that rest because of their disobedience, as seen in Numbers 14:20-24 and Psalm 95:10-11.

What is the significance of 'disobedience' in this verse?

Disobedience is significant because it prevented the Israelites from entering into God's rest, as seen in Hebrews 3:18-19, and it is a warning to us today to obey God's voice and not harden our hearts, as seen in Hebrews 4:7.

How does this verse relate to our lives today?

This verse reminds us that God's rest is still available to us today, but we must obey Him and not harden our hearts, as seen in Matthew 11:28-30 and Hebrews 4:11, where we are encouraged to enter into God's rest and to strive to enter into that rest.

What does it mean to 'harden my heart' against God's voice, and how can I avoid doing that?
How can I apply the warning of this verse to my own life, and what steps can I take to obey God's voice and enter into His rest?

Gill's Exposition on Hebrews 4:6

Seeing therefore it remaineth,.... It follows by just consequence, that some must enter therein; for God's swearing concerning some, that they should not enter into his rest, supposes that others

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Hebrews 4:6

Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief: It remaineth - still to be realized. Some must enter.

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Hebrews 4:6

The Spirit having demonstrated, that God’ s rest sworn to believers in the gospel, and mentioned by David, could not be the seventh day’ s rest; proceeds to prove likewise, that it could not be the rest of Israel in the land of Canaan, since that was entered into four hundred years before he wrote by the Spirit of this better rest, since those unbelieving Israel that entered into Canaan never entered into this rest. Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein; forasmuch then as a rest to come is spoken of, and that some believers must have a real and full possession of the glorious rest offered to them in the gospel, as David foretold: see . And they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief; the unbelieving Israel, who had the glad tidings of this rest preached unto them by Moses and by David, &c., yet entered not into it, though they entered into and lived in Canaan, because of their disobedience and unbelief. Then it follows Canaan’ s rest and this cannot be all one, and the latter only is intended by David here.

Trapp's Commentary on Hebrews 4:6

6 Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief: Ver. 6. Seeing therefore it remaineth] This is a deduction from the former text of the Psalmist. Such as is that of our Saviour, Matthew 22:32, from Exodus 3:6. And such inferences rightly drawn are the very word of God, 1 Corinthians 7:10.

Ellicott's Commentary on Hebrews 4:6

(6) The substance of the preceding verses may be thus expressed: There is a rest of God, into which some are to enter with God,—a rest not yet entered at the time of the wandering in the wilderness, and therefore not that which followed the work of creation,—a rest from which some were excluded because of unbelief. These five particulars are repeated in substance in the present verse: “Seeing, therefore, it is (still) left that some should enter in, and they to whom formerly glad tidings were declared entered not in because of disobedience, He again,” &c. “Disobedience”—though Hebrews 4:2 speaks of unbelief as the cause: see Note on Hebrews 3:18. In John 3:36, the transition from “believeth” to “obeyeth” is equally striking.

Adam Clarke's Commentary on Hebrews 4:6

Verse 6. It remaineth that some must enter therein] Why our translators put in the word must here I cannot even conjecture. I hope it was not to serve a system, as some have since used it: "Some must go to heaven, for so is the doctrine of the decree; and there must be certain persons infallibly brought thither as a reward to Christ for his sufferings; and in this the will of man and free agency can have no part," c, c. Now, supposing that even all this was true, yet it does not exist either positively or by implication in the text. The words επειουναπολειπεταιτιναςεισελθεινειςαυτην, literally translated, are as follows: Seeing then it remaineth for some to enter into it or, Whereas therefore it remaineth that some enter into it, which is Dr. Owen's translation, and they to whom it was first preached (οἱπροτερονευαγγελισθεντες, they to whom the promise was given they who first received the good tidings; i.e., the Israelites, to whom was given the promise of entering into the rest of Canaan) did not enter in because of their unbelief; and the promise still continued to be repeated even in the days of David; therefore, some other rest must be intended.

Cambridge Bible on Hebrews 4:6

6. it remaineth] The promise is still left open, is unexhausted.because of unbelief] Rather, “because of disobedience” (apeitheian). It was not the Israelites of the wilderness, but their descendants, who came to Shiloh, and so enjoyed a sort of earthly type of the heavenly rest (Joshua 18:1).

Barnes' Notes on Hebrews 4:6

Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein - That is, “Since there is a rest spoken of in the Scriptures, implying that it is to be enjoyed by some, and since they to whom it was

Whedon's Commentary on Hebrews 4:6

6. Now for the third rest, namely, that for the obedient in the days of David, long after the abode in Canaan. It remaineth—As a clear inference from the words in Psalm xcv, quoted last verse. Must—The word not in the Greek.
