Bible Question: yes i"m new to all this. I'll like to know the meaning behind Hebrews 6: 1-3 |
Bible Answer: Hebrews 6:1-2 lists things that are elementry or basic teachings and doctrine of Christ... repentance and abandonment of dead works faith baptism the laying on of hands the resurrection of the dead eternal judgment and punishment I personally understand this passage in context with Hebrews 5:11-14 In Hebrews5:11-6:3 the author of Hebrews is showing his frustration (Heb 5:11-14) and urging the audience not to live on milk but solid food by moving past these elementary teachings listed in Hebrews 6:1-2 (which the audience should have been completly aware of for a very long time) and God permitting/willing move on to advanced teaching (Hebrews 6:3) |
