This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Heb 10:26. Ἑκουσίως, wilfully) For after the truth has been acknowledged, the excuse of ignorance is taken away.-ἁμαρτανόντων, if we sin) To sin here means entire revolt or apostasy from GOD, Heb 10:29, ch. Heb 3:12, 2Ki 21:16; and the violation, not of the law, Heb 10:28, but of the whole economy of the New Testament, Heb 10:29. Comp. ἀθετήσας, rejected, despised, Heb 10:28, note.-μετὰ τὸ λαβεῖν, after we have received) This does not so much refer to individuals as to the state of believers of the New Testament: whence, however, the conclusion holds good to individuals, Heb 10:29.-τῆς ἀληθείας, of the truth) The truth, here, and grace, Heb 10:29, are expressions applied to the New Testament. The Spirit of grace, ibid., is called the Spirit of truth in Joh 14:17.-οὐκέτι, no more) The fruit of the sacrifice of Christ is always evident to them who do not reject it, but those who reject it have nothing else.-περὶ ἁμαρτιῶν, for sins) refers to ἁμαρτανόντων, if we sin.
