Hebrews 6:8
_ _ that which — rather as Greek (no article), “But if it (the ‘land,’ Hebrews 6:7) bear”; not so favorable a word as “bringeth forth,” Hebrews 6:7, said of the good soil.
_ _ briers — Greek, “thistles.”
_ _ rejected — after having been tested; so the Greek implies. Reprobate ... rejected by the Lord.
_ _ nigh unto cursing — on the verge of being given up to its own barrenness by the just curse of God. This “nigh” softens the severity of the previous “It is impossible,” etc. (Hebrews 6:4, Hebrews 6:6). The ground is not yet actually cursed.
_ _ whose — “of which (land) the end is unto burning,” namely, with the consuming fire of the last judgment; as the land of Sodom was given to “brimstone, salt, and burning” (Deuteronomy 29:23); so as to the ungodly (Matthew 3:10, Matthew 3:12; Matthew 7:19; Matthew 13:30; John 15:6; 2 Peter 3:10). Jerusalem, which had so resisted the grace of Christ, was then nigh unto cursing, and in a few years was burned. Compare Matthew 22:7, “burned up their city” an earnest of a like fate to all willful abusers of God’s grace (Hebrews 10:26, Hebrews 10:27). |
Hebrews 6:8
That which beareth thorns and briers — Only or chiefly. Is rejected — No more labour is bestowed upon it. Whose end is to be burned — As Jerusalem was shortly after. |
