Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Hebrews 10:27

_ _ a certain — an extraordinary and indescribable. The indefiniteness, as of something peculiar of its kind, makes the description the more terrible (compare Greek, James 1:18).

_ _ looking for — “expectation”: a later sense of the Greek. Alford strangely translates, as the Greek usually means elsewhere, “reception.” The transition is easy from “giving a reception to” something or someone, to “looking for.” Contrast the “expecting” (the very same Greek as here), Hebrews 10:13, which refutes Alford.

_ _ fiery indignation — literally, “zeal of fire.” Fire is personified: glow or ardor of fire, that is, of Him who is “a consuming fire.”

_ _ devour — continually.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Hebrews 10:19-39.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Hebrews 10:27

But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the (n) adversaries.

(n) For it is another matter to sin through the frailty of man's nature, and another thing to proclaim war on God as on an enemy.
