Notes
He will not forget your work: By showing love for God and his people, your actions prove your true connection with God (Romans 2:6–7; 1 Corinthians 3:13–15; James 2:14–20). God remembers (Exodus 2:24; 1 Chronicles 16:15; Psalm 106:45) and recognizes those who truly belong to him.
After giving a strong warning to his hearers (Hebrews 6:4–8), the author now softens it by calling them beloved. He shows confidence in them and offers more encouragement.
After starting to talk about the role of Jesus as high priest (Hebrews 5:1–10), the author addresses the audience with several encouragements (5:11–6:20). This change in the sermon or speech aimed to capture the listeners' attention.
