And with whom was He angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

Therefore let us be diligent to enter that rest, so that no one will fall, through following the same example of disobedience.

And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence so as to realize the full assurance of hope until the end,

This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil,

“And they shall not teach everyone his fellow citizen,
And everyone his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’
For all will know Me,
From the least to the greatest of them.

Behind the second veil there was a tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies,

by a new and living way which He inaugurated for us through the veil, that is, His flesh,

let us draw near with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

By faith he lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in a foreign land, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, fellow heirs of the same promise;

By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encircled for seven days.

And what more shall I say? For time will fail me if I tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets,

And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, “I am full of fear and trembling.”
