For *it is* a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein. 10 We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle. 11 For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp. 12 Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate. 13 Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach. 14 For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come. 15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of *our* lips giving thanks to his name. 16 But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. 17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that *is* unprofitable for you. 18 Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly. 19 But I beseech *you* the rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner. 20 Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 21 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom *be* glory for ever and ever. Amen. 22 And I beseech you, brethren, suffer the word of exhortation: for I have written a letter unto you in few words. 23 Know ye that *our* brother Timothy is set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you. 24 Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you. 25 Grace *be* with you all. Amen. [Hebrews 12](/study/hebrews/12) [James 1](/study/james/1) ## Commentary To verse 1 THE EXHORTATIONS for practical daily living in this closing chapter are strikingly befitting. The first is: Let love of the brethren continue. There would be a natural attraction to others, especially to prominent and wealthy ones of their own race; but these were not the brethren.[Most of the brethren were classified by God in 1 Corinthians 1:26-28](/kjv/-most-of-the-brethren-were-classified-by-god-in-1-corinthians/1/26-28): "foolish," "weak," "base," "despised," zeros--"the things that are not"! The word for love-of-the-brethren is *philadelphia*, love of the brotherhood. It should be the determination of the very heart and soul of every believer that nothing should interrupt or mar this love for the precious brotherhood, that is, for those in Christ. But by all means let him "continue" it, at any cost of self-sacrifice![For as we find it in Chapter 10:24](/kjv/-for-as-we-find-it-in-chapter/10/24), "Let us consider one another to provoke (by our own kindnesses and example) unto love and good works." Paul thus commends a beloved household, that of Stephanas: "Ye know the house of Stephanas ... that they have set themselves to minister unto the saints.... I beseech you, brethren, that ye also be in subjection unto such, and to everyone that helpeth in the work and laboreth." There is no ministry that brings such a response in a heart subjection of love!* * The author's book, Romans Verse by Verse (p. 471-2), makes this comment on Heb. 13:1-5: We have in Heb. 13 three uses of the Greek root *phil*--meaning love: (1) "Let love of the brethren (*philadelphia*) continue"; (2) "Forget not to show love unto strangers" (*philoxenia*); and, (3) in verse 5, "Be free from silver-loving" (*philarguros*). If you are tempted to *philarguros*, *philadelphia* and *philoxenia* will cure you! ... Let us make "Strangers' Inns" of our homes. We are not staying here long. And the Lord may send "angels" around when we least expect! ... Even if the reference in "unawares" is not to Abraham in Gen. 18 (for he at once recognized the Lord, and knew His attendants), yet the statement seems rather an absolute one of inspiration, suggesting such a possibility for any of us! See also the case of Gideon in Jud. 6; and Manoah, Jud. 13. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com","name":"Real Bible Believers","description":"RBB","publisher":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/search?q={search_term_string}","query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation/hebrews/13#primaryimage","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/_app/immutable/assets/missing.C7wGMEZ6.jpg","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/_app/immutable/assets/missing.C7wGMEZ6.jpg","width":672,"height":448,"caption":"Real Bible Believers"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation/hebrews/13#webpage","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation/hebrews/13","name":"Hebrews 13 - Study King James Bible with newells commentary on romans hebrews and revelation","isPartOf":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation/hebrews/13#primaryimage"},"author":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"description":"Read Hebrews 13 with newells commentary on romans hebrews and revelation commentary. 1 Let brotherly love continue. 2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for there by some have entertained angels unawares. 3 Remember them that are in","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation/hebrews/13#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation/hebrews/13"]}]},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation/hebrews/13#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/","name":"Home"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study","name":"Study Bible"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation","name":"newells commentary on romans hebrews and revelation"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":4,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation/hebrews","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation/hebrews","name":"Hebrews"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":5,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation/hebrews/13","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/newells-commentary-on-romans-hebrews-and-revelation/hebrews/13","name":"13"}}]},{"@type":["Person","Organization"],"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#personlogo","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/android-chrome-512x512.png","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/android-chrome-512x512.png","width":512,"height":512},"logo":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#personlogo"},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/RBiblebeliever","https://www.facebook.com/RBibleBelievers"]}]} ```
