NASB | Hebrews 6:2 of instruction about washings and laying on of hands, and the resurrection of the dead and eternal judgment. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 6:2 of teaching about washings (ritual purifications), the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. [These are all important matters in which you should have been proficient long ago.] |
Bible Question: Hebrews 6:1-2 lists several "foundational" principles: repentance, baptism, resurrection and judgement. These are clearly basic christian doctrines. But why is the laying on of hands included? What makes it as basic as the others? |
Bible Answer: Hi Listener, I think that this list is what the writer is hoping to "leave" and press on to other things. It's time to go on to maturity, to perfection, to completion. It's time to look at the Messiah now as our Priest. |
