Notes

Hebrews 10:30–31

“The Lord will judge His people”: Deuteronomy 32:36; compare 1 Peter 4:17 –18.
That God will repay them and will judge His people shows how serious the situation is for those who have rejected Christ. Once God decides to judge someone, no one can save that person from God's hand (Deuteronomy 32:39).

Hebrews 10:26–31

The author gives a strong warning about the danger of rejecting God's Son and his message. This warning urges listeners to commit to following Christ.
