Hebrews

Question 1

Remember the prisoners, as though in prison with them, and those who are ill- treated, since you yourselves also are in the body.

Answer 1

Hebrews 13:3

Question 2

He was faithful to Him who appointed Him, as Moses also was in all His house. 3 For He has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by just so much as the builder of the house has more honor than the house. 4 For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God. 5 Now Moses was faithful in all His house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken later; 6 but Christ was faithful as a Son over His house — whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and the boast of our hope firm until the end.

Answer 2

Hebrews 3:2-6

Question 3

The former priests, on the one hand, existed in greater numbers because they were prevented by death from continuing, 24 but Jesus, on the other hand, because He continues forever, holds His priesthood permanently. 25 Therefore He is able also to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.

Answer 3

Hebrews 7:23-25

Question 4

Therefore, just as the Holy Spirit says,
“ Today if you hear His voice,
8 DO not harden your hearts as when they provoked ME,
AS in the day of trial in the wilderness,

Answer 4

Hebrews 3:7-8

Question 5

But encourage one another day after day, as long as it is still called “Today,” so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our assurance firm until the end, 15 while it is said,
“ Today if you hear His voice,
DO not harden your hearts, as when they provoked ME.”

Answer 5

Hebrews 3:13-15

Question 6

For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an infant. 14 But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.

Answer 6

Hebrews 5:13-14

Question 7

For to which of the angels did He ever say,
“ You are MY Son,
Today I have begotten You”?
And again,
“ I will be A Father to Him
And HE shall be A Son to ME”?

Answer 7

Hebrews 1:5-13

Question 8

God- pleasing Sacrifices
15 Through Him then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that give thanks to His name. 16 And do not neglect doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.

Answer 8

Hebrews 13:15-16

Question 9

Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that through death He might render powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and might free those who through fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives.

Answer 9

Hebrews 2:14-15

Question 10

The Perfect High Priest
1 For every high priest taken from among men is appointed on behalf of men in things pertaining to God, in order to offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins; 2 he can deal gently with the ignorant and misguided, since he himself also is beset with weakness;

Answer 10

Hebrews 5:1-2

Question 11

Jesus Briefly Humbled
9 But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.
10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to perfect the author of their salvation through sufferings. 11 For both He who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all from one Father; for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren,

Answer 11

Hebrews 2:9-11

Question 12

For men swear by one greater than themselves, and with them an oath given as confirmation is an end of every dispute. 17 In the same way God, desiring even more to show to the heirs of the promise the unchangeableness of His purpose, interposed with an oath, 18 so that by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have taken refuge would have strong encouragement to take hold of the hope set before us. 19 This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil, 20 where Jesus has entered as a forerunner for us, having become a high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.

Answer 12

Hebrews 6:16-20

Question 13

And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4 having become as much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent name than they.

Answer 13

Hebrews 1:3-4

Question 14

For it was fitting for us to have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners and exalted above the heavens; 27 who does not need daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people, because this He did once for all when He offered up Himself. 28 For the Law appoints men as high priests who are weak, but the word of the oath, which came after the Law, appoints a Son, made perfect forever.

Answer 14

Hebrews 7:26-28

Question 15

The Triumphs of Faith
1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. 2 For by it the men of old gained approval.

Answer 15

Hebrews 11:1-2

Question 16

Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, by which we may offer to God an acceptable service with reverence and awe; 29 for our God is a consuming fire.

Answer 16

Hebrews 12:28-29

Question 17

Jesus, the Example
1 Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 For consider Him who has endured such hostility by sinners against Himself, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.

Answer 17

Hebrews 12:1-3

Question 18

But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things to come, He entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation; 12 and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, He entered the holy place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption.

Answer 18

Hebrews 9:11-12

Question 19

For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are sanctified. 15 And the Holy Spirit also testifies to us; for after saying,
16 “ This is the covenant that I will make with them
After those days, says the Lord:
I will put MY laws upon their heart,
And on their mind I will write them,”
He then says,

Answer 19

Hebrews 10:14-16

Question 20

For if the word spoken through angels proved unalterable, and every transgression and disobedience received a just penalty, 3 how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation? After it was at the first spoken through the Lord, it was confirmed to us by those who heard,

Answer 20

Hebrews 2:2-3

Question 21

For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two- edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13 And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.

Answer 21

Hebrews 4:12-13

Question 22

Therefore, He had to be made like His brethren in all things, so that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people. 18 For since He Himself was tempted in that which He has suffered, He is able to come to the aid of those who are tempted.

Answer 22

Hebrews 2:17-18

Question 23

And indeed if they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had opportunity to return. 16 But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for He has prepared a city for them.

Answer 23

Hebrews 11:15-16

Question 24

One Sacrifice of Christ Is Sufficient
1 For the Law, since it has only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very form of things, can never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually year by year, make perfect those who draw near. 2 Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have had consciousness of sins?

Answer 24

Hebrews 10:1-2

Question 25

So we see that they were not able to enter because of unbelief.

1 Therefore, let us fear if, while a promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short of it.
2 For indeed we have had good news preached to us, just as they also; but the word they heard did not profit them, because it was not united by faith in those who heard.

Answer 25

Hebrews 3:19 - 4:2

Question 26

Make sure that your character is free from the love of money, being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, “ I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you,” 6 so that we confidently say,
“ The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid.
What will man do to me?”

Answer 26

Hebrews 13:5-6

Question 27

Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin. 16 Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Answer 27

Hebrews 4:14-16

Question 28

For if Joshua had given them rest, He would not have spoken of another day after that. 9 So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. 10 For the one who has entered His rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from His. 11 Therefore let us be diligent to enter that rest, so that no one will fall, through following the same example of disobedience.

Answer 28

Hebrews 4:8-11

Question 29

All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.
12 Therefore, strengthen the hands that are weak and the knees that are feeble,
13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that the limb which is lame may not be put out of joint, but rather be healed.

Answer 29

Hebrews 12:11-13

Question 30

For, on the one hand, there is a setting aside of a former commandment because of its weakness and uselessness 19 (for the Law made nothing perfect), and on the other hand there is a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.

Answer 30

Hebrews 7:18-19

Question 31

And according to the Law, one may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.

Answer 31

Hebrews 9:22

Question 32

For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins. 5 Therefore, when He comes into the world, He says,
“ Sacrifice and offering You have not desired,
But A body You have prepared for ME;
6 IN whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You have taken no pleasure.
7 “ Then I said, ‘ Behold, I have come
(IN the scroll of the book it is written of ME)
TO do Your will, O God. ’”
8 After saying above, “ Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You have not desired, nor have You taken pleasure in them” (which are offered according to the Law), 9 then He said, “ Behold, I have come to do Your will.” He takes away the first in order to establish the second. 10 By this will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

Answer 32

Hebrews 10:4-10

Question 33

And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.

Answer 33

Hebrews 11:6

Question 34

Therefore, do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. 36 For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised.
37 For yet in A very little while,
HE who is coming will come, and will not delay.
38 But MY righteous one shall live by faith;
And if he shrinks back, MY soul has no pleasure in him.
39 But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the preserving of the soul.

Answer 34

Hebrews 10:35-39

Question 35

And inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment, 28 so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time for salvation without reference to sin, to those who eagerly await Him.

Answer 35

Hebrews 9:27-28

Question 36

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

Answer 36

Hebrews 13:8

Question 37

In the days of His flesh, He offered up both prayers and supplications with loud crying and tears to the One able to save Him from death, and He was heard because of His piety. 8 Although He was a Son, He learned obedience from the things which He suffered. 9 And having been made perfect, He became to all those who obey Him the source of eternal salvation, 10 being designated by God as a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.

Answer 37

Hebrews 5:7-10

Question 38

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful; 24 and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, 25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.

Answer 38

Hebrews 10:23-25

Question 39

And this is clearer still, if another priest arises according to the likeness of Melchizedek, 16 who has become such not on the basis of a law of physical requirement, but according to the power of an indestructible life. 17 For it is attested of Him,
“ You are A priest forever
According to the order of Melchizedek.”

Answer 39

Hebrews 7:15-17

Question 40

For in the case of those who have once been enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God and put Him to open shame.

Answer 40

Hebrews 6:4-6

Question 41

By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed by going out to a place which he was to receive for an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing where he was going. 9 By faith he lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in a foreign land, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, fellow heirs of the same promise; 10 for he was looking for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God.

Answer 41

Hebrews 11:8-10

Question 42

and you have forgotten the exhortation which is addressed to you as sons,
“ MY son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord,
Nor faint when you are reproved by Him;
6 For those whom the Lord loves HE disciplines,
And HE scourges every son whom HE receives.”
7 It is for discipline that you endure; God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

Answer 42

Hebrews 12:5-7

Question 43

A New Covenant
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion sought for a second. 8 For finding fault with them, He says,
“ Behold, days are coming, says the Lord,
When I will effect A new covenant
With the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;
9 Not like the covenant which I made with their fathers
ON the day when I took them by the hand
TO lead them out of the land of Egypt;
For they did not continue in MY covenant,
And I did not care for them, says the Lord.
10 “ For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel
After those days, says the Lord:
I will put MY laws into their minds,
And I will write them on their hearts.
And I will be their God,
And they shall be MY people.
11 “ And they shall not teach everyone his fellow citizen,
And everyone his brother, saying, ‘ Know the Lord, ’
For all will know ME,
From the least to the greatest of them.
12 “ For I will be merciful to their iniquities,
And I will remember their sins no more.”

Answer 43

Hebrews 8:7-12

Question 44

How much severer punishment do you think he will deserve who has trampled under foot the Son of God, and has regarded as unclean the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has insulted the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know Him who said, “ Vengeance is Mine, I will repay.” And again, “ The Lord will judge His people.” 31 It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

Answer 44

Hebrews 10:29-31

Question 45

For you know that even afterwards, when he desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought for it with tears.

Answer 45

Hebrews 12:17
