This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Which (hētis). Your boldness of Heb 10:35.

Recompense of reward (misthapodosian). Late double compound, like misthapodotēs (Heb 11:6), from misthos (reward, wages) and apodidōmi, to give back, to pay (repay). In N.T. only here, Heb 2:2; Heb 11:26.

Of patience (hupomonēs). Old word for remaining under trial (Luk 8:15). This was the call of the hour then as now.

Having done the will of God (to thelēma tou theou). This is an essential prerequisite to the exercise of patience and to obtain the promised blessing. There is no promise to those who patiently keep on doing wrong.

That ye may receive the promise (hina komisēsthe tēn epaggelian) Purpose clause with hina and the first aorist middle subjunctive of komizō, old verb to carry (Luk 7:37), in the middle to get back one’s own (Mat 25:27), to receive. See also Heb 11:39. Now the author is ready to develop this great idea of receiving the promise in Christ.
