This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Heb 10:29. Χείρονος) which is worse and more horrible than any punishment of the body.-ὁ) i.e. he who most atrociously sins against GOD, whose Son is the Priest, ch. Heb 5:5, and against the Son, whose own blood is the blood of the New Testament, and against the Holy Spirit, who is the Spirit of grace. A man of this sort retracts the whole form and confession of his baptism, and rejects the whole economy of the New Testament; comp. Heb 6:6, note.-καταπατήσας, who has trodden) whereas he ought to adore. But he who sins spontaneously, treads under foot, as it is described at Heb 10:26.-τῆς διαθήκης) of the testament, that is, the better testament or covenant which GOD has made.-κοινὸν, common) as if it were the blood of a mere man, common or even guilty. The antithesis is, he was sanctified.-ἡγησάμενος, and has counted) without discernment; comp. 1Co 11:29.-ἐν ᾧ ἡγιάσθη, by which he was sanctified) Therefore Christ died even for such a man as this. The same word is used concerning the redeemed, Heb 10:10; Heb 10:14, ch. Heb 2:11 (where they are distinguished from the Redeemer, who sanctifies); ch. Heb 13:12, where mention is likewise made of the blood.-τῆς χάριτος, of grace) See note on Heb 10:26.-ἐνυβρίσας, and has treated insultingly, [and hath done despite to]) by repelling Him. Insult or despite is done by deeds; blasphemy is vented by words: comp. 1Ti 1:13, note. Where blasphemy is added, the guilt is in the very worst degree aggravated; Mar 3:29.
