Jamieson Fausset Brown Commentary - Hebrews 3:10 - 3:10


(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

grieved - displeased. Compare “walk contrary,” Lev 26:24, Lev 26:28.

that generation - “that” implies alienation and estrangement. But the oldest manuscripts read, “this.”

said - “grieved,” or “displeased,” at their first offense. Subsequently when they hardened their heart in unbelief still more, He sware in His wrath (Heb 3:11); an ascending gradation (compare Heb 3:17, Heb 3:18).

and they have not known - Greek, “But these very persons,” etc. They perceived I was displeased with them, yet they, the same persons, did not a whit the more wish to know my ways [Bengel]; compare “but they,” Psa 106:43.

not known my ways - not known practically and believingly the ways in which I would have had them go, so as to reach My rest (Exo 18:20).
