Hebrews 3:11

(1/1)

Nickreading1984:
They shall NEVER enter my rest

Sounds like never to me. If anyone's getting annoyed with me, this is why I said I wanted a one-on-one. But, hey; I hope I don't wear out my welcome!

Craig:
I would look at your translation.

It should be

They shall NOT enter into my rest

Kat:

Hi Nick,

Like Craig that's just one, but most translations do not have the word 'never' in that verse.

I believe this is speaking of the Israelites entering the promise land, which they did not (save a very few) in their lifetime. A shadow of the world in this age, as the majority of mankind will not enter into God's rest or come to know God and the peace/rest of that in the lifetime as well.

mercy, peace and love
