The Rest That Remains For The People Of God
7 God again identified a certain day, [calling it] "Today," in David's [writings], a long time later (just as it was referred to above) [Psa. 95:7-8], "Today, if you hear His [i.e., God's] voice, do not have a stubborn heart." 8 For if Joshua had given the Israelites rest, God would not have spoken about another day later on [i.e., "Today" in Psa. 95:7]. 9 [So] then, a Sabbath "rest day" [still] remains for God's people [i.e., for Christians, in heaven].
