Ibrani 5:5

5:5 So also Christ did not glorify himself in becoming high priest, but the one who glorified him was God, ¹  who said to him, “You are my Son! Today I have fathered you,” ² 

Ibrani 5:12

5:12 For though you should in fact be teachers by this time, ³  you need someone to teach you the beginning elements of God’s utterances. ⁴  You have gone back to needing ⁵  milk, not ⁶  solid food.

Ibrani 10:22

10:22 let us draw near with a sincere heart in the assurance that faith brings, ⁷  because we have had our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience ⁸  and our bodies washed in pure water.

[5:5]  ¹ tn Grk “the one”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[5:5]  ² tn Grk “I have begotten you”; see Heb 1:5.

[5:5]  sn A quotation from Ps 2:7.

[5:12]  ³ tn Grk “because of the time.”

[5:12]  ⁴ tn Grk “the elements of the beginning of the oracles of God.”

[5:12]  ⁵ tn Grk “you have come to have a need for.”

[5:12]  ⁶ tc ‡ Most texts, including some early and important ones (א² A B* D Ψ 0122 0278 1881 Ï sy Cl), have καί (kai, “and”) immediately preceding οὐ (ou, “not”), but other equally significant witnesses (Ì⁴⁶ א* B² C 33 81 1739 lat Or Did) lack the conjunction. As it was a natural tendency for scribes to add a coordinating conjunction, the καί appears to be a motivated reading. On balance, it is probably best to regard the shorter reading as authentic. NA²⁷ has καί in brackets, indicating doubts as to its authenticity.

[10:22]  ⁷ tn Grk “in assurance of faith.”

[10:22]  ⁸ sn The phrase our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience combines the OT imagery of the sprinkling with blood to give ritual purity with the emphasis on the interior cleansing provided by the new covenant: It is the heart that is cleansed and the conscience made perfect (cf. Heb 8:10; 9:9, 14; 10:2, 16).
