The four Let Us . . .

Saturday 2021.09.04

Shabbat Shalom. Today is the Seventh Day of the Biblical Week. Let us rest from all our work.

This morning, as I was reading through chapters three and four of the Epistle general to the Hebrews, I came across four instances of "Let us . . ." where we are enjoined by the Apostle to be vigilant and to endeavour in Godly living. These four verses are as follows:

Hebrews 4:1 KJV
Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
Hebrews 4:11 KJV
Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
Hebrews 4:14 KJV
Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
Hebrews 4:16 KJV
Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
