Hebrews 12 - Introduction
An exhortation to faithful endurance (1 3) and a reminder that our earthly sufferings are due to the fatherly chastisement of God (4 13). The need of earnest watchfulness (14 17). Magnificent concluding appeal founded on the superiority and grandeur of the New Covenant (18 24), which enhances the guilt and peril of apostasy (25 29).
