Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

See commentary on Hebrews 3:7-11.


Hebrews 3:10

_ _ grieved — displeased. Compare “walk contrary,” Leviticus 26:24, Leviticus 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 (Hebrews 3:11); an ascending gradation (compare Hebrews 3:17, Hebrews 3:18).

_ _ and they have not knownGreek, “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,” Psalms 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 (Exodus 18:20).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Hebrews 3:7-19.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Hebrews 3:10

Wherefore — To speak after the manner of men. I was grieved — Displeased, offended with that generation, and said, They always err in their hearts — They are led astray by their stubborn will and vile affections. And — For this reason, because wickedness has blinded their understanding. They have not known my ways — By which I would have led them like a flock. Into my rest — In the promised land.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes
