Ibrani 3:6

3:6 But Christ ¹  is faithful as a son over God’s ²  house. We are of his house, ³  if in fact we hold firmly ⁴  to our confidence and the hope we take pride in. ⁵ 

Ibrani 7:5

7:5 And those of the sons of Levi who receive the priestly office ⁶  have authorization according to the law to collect a tithe from the people, that is, from their fellow countrymen, ⁷  although they too are descendants of Abraham. ⁸ 

Ibrani 7:26

7:26 For it is indeed fitting for us to have such a high priest: holy, innocent, undefiled, separate from sinners, and exalted above the heavens.

Ibrani 10:8

10:8 When he says above, “Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sin-offerings you did not desire nor did you take delight in them” ⁹  (which are offered according to the law),

Ibrani 11:11

11:11 By faith, even though Sarah herself was barren and he was too old, ¹⁰  he received the ability to procreate, ¹¹  because he regarded the one who had given the promise to be trustworthy.

[3:6]  ¹ sn The Greek makes the contrast between v. 5 and v. 6a more emphatic and explicit than is easily done in English.

[3:6]  ² tn Grk “his”; in the translation the referent (God) has been specified for clarity.

[3:6]  ³ tn Grk “whose house we are,” continuing the previous sentence.

[3:6]  ⁴ tc The reading adopted by the translation is found in Ì^13,46 B sa, while the vast majority of mss (א A C D Ψ 0243 0278 33 1739 1881 Ï latt) add μέχρι τέλους βεβαίαν (mecri telou" bebaian, “secure until the end”). The external evidence for the omission, though minimal, has excellent credentials. Considering the internal factors, B. M. Metzger (TCGNT 595) finds it surprising that the feminine adjective βεβαίαν should modify the neuter noun καύχημα (kauchma, here translated “we take pride”), a fact that suggests that even the form of the word was borrowed from another place. Since the same phrase occurs at Heb 3:14, it is likely that later scribes added it here at Heb 3:6 in anticipation of Heb 3:14. While these words belong at 3:14, they seem foreign to 3:6.

[3:6]  ⁵ tn Grk “the pride of our hope.”

[7:5]  ⁶ tn Or “the priesthood.”

[7:5]  ⁷ tn Grk “from their brothers.” See BDAG 18-19 s.v. ἀδελφός 2.b.

[7:5]  ⁸ tn Grk “have come from the loins of Abraham.”

[10:8]  ⁹ sn Various phrases from the quotation of Ps 40:6 in Heb 10:5-6 are repeated in Heb 10:8.

[11:11]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “past the time of maturity.”

[11:11]  ¹¹ tn Grk “power to deposit seed.” Though it is not as likely, some construe this phrase to mean “power to conceive seed,” making the whole verse about Sarah: “by faith, even though Sarah herself was barren and too old, she received ability to conceive, because she regarded the one who had given the promise to be trustworthy.”
