And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.

Notes

The Holy Spirit guides people to God. A person who speaks against (blasphemes) the Holy Spirit and rejects the Spirit’s witness about Jesus also rejects God. This is the unforgivable sin (see study notes on Matthew 12:31–32).
