NASB | Hebrews 6:6 and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God and put Him to open shame. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 6:6 and then have fallen away--it is impossible to bring them back again to repentance, since they again nail the Son of God on the cross [for as far as they are concerned, they are treating the death of Christ as if they were not saved by it], and are holding Him up again to public disgrace. |
Subject: disciplerami, it is impossible (Heb 6:6) |
Bible Note: "So WHILE they crucify Him, it is impossible. If they quit crucifying Him, then it is no longer impossible to renew them again to repentance." I can honestly say that this is the first time I have ever heard of such an interpretation of this text. What does it mean that they were "crucifying Christ to themselves," according to your interpretation? How does someone who has fallen away stop crucifying Christ to themselves? And how is this any type of dire warning if what the writer was "really saying" is that salvation is a revolving door, that we can be born again and again and again and again? That seems to fly right in the face of the verses in their context. Where did you get the word "WHILE" from the text? Thanks! --Joe! |
