VUL Clementine Vulgate
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 Quapropter intermittentes inchoationis Christi sermonem, ad perfectiora feramur, non rursum jacientes fundamentum pœnitentiæ ab operibus mortuis, et fidei ad Deum,
1 POR tanto, dejando la palabra del comienzo [en la doctrina] de Cristo, vamos adelante á la perfección; no echando otra vez el fundamento del arrepentimiento de obras muertas, y de la fe en Dios,
2 baptismatum doctrinæ, impositionis quoque manuum, ac resurrectionis mortuorum, et judicii æterni.
2 De la doctrina de bautismos, y de la imposición de manos, y de la resurrección de los muertos, y del juicio eterno.
3 Et hoc faciemus, si quidem permiserit Deus.
3 Y esto haremos á la verdad, si Dios [lo] permitiere.
4 Impossibile est enim eos qui semel sunt illuminati, gustaverunt etiam donum cæleste, et participes facti sunt Spiritus Sancti,
4 Porque es imposible que los que una vez fueron iluminados y gustaron el don celestial, y fueron hechos partícipes del Espíritu Santo,
5 gustaverunt nihilominus bonum Dei verbum, virtutesque sæculi venturi,
5 Y asimismo gustaron la buena palabra de Dios, y las virtudes del siglo venidero,
6 et prolapsi sunt; rursus renovari ad pœnitentiam, rursum crucifigentes sibimetipsis Filium Dei, et ostentui habentes.
6 Y recayeron, sean otra vez renovados para arrepentimiento, crucificando de nuevo para sí mismos al Hijo de Dios, y exponiéndole á vituperio.
7 Terra enim sæpe venientem super se bibens imbrem, et generans herbam opportunam illis, a quibus colitur, accipit benedictionem a Deo:
7 Porque la tierra que embebe el agua que muchas veces vino sobre ella, y produce hierba provechosa á aquellos de los cuales es labrada, recibe bendición de Dios:
8 proferens autem spinas ac tribulos, reproba est, et maledicto proxima: cujus consummatio in combustionem.
8 Mas la que produce espinas y abrojos, es reprobada, y cercana de maldición; cuyo fin será el ser abrasada.
9 Confidimus autem de vobis dilectissimi meliora, et viciniora saluti: tametsi ita loquimur.
9 Pero de vosotros, oh amados, esperamos mejores cosas, y más cercanas á salud, aunque hablamos así.
10 Non enim injustus Deus, ut obliviscatur operis vestri, et dilectionis, quam ostendistis in nomine ipsius, qui ministrastis sanctis, et ministratis.
10 Porque Dios no es injusto para olvidar vuestra obra y el trabajo de amor que habéis mostrado á su nombre, habiendo asistido y asistiendo aún á los santos.
11 Cupimus autem unumquemque vestrum eamdem ostentare sollicitudinem ad expletionem spei usque in finem:
11 Mas deseamos que cada uno de vosotros muestre la misma solicitud hasta el cabo, para cumplimiento de la esperanza:
12 ut non segnes efficiamini, verum imitatores eorum, qui fide, et patientia hæreditabunt promissiones.
12 Que no os hagáis perezosos, mas imitadores de aquellos que por la fe y la paciencia heredan las promesas.
13 Abrahæ namque promittens Deus, quoniam neminem habuit, per quem juraret, majorem, juravit per semetipsum,
13 Porque prometiendo Dios á Abraham, no pudiendo jurar por otro mayor, juró por sí mismo,
14 dicens: Nisi benedicens benedicam te, et multiplicans multiplicabo te.
14 Diciendo: De cierto te bendeciré bendiciendo, y multiplicando te multiplicaré.
15 Et sic longanimiter ferens, adeptus est repromissionem.
15 Y así, esperando con largura de ánimo, alcanzó la promesa.
16 Homines enim per majorem sui jurant: et omnis controversiæ eorum finis, ad confirmationem, est juramentum.
16 Porque los hombres ciertamente por el mayor [que ellos] juran: y el fin de todas sus controversias es el juramento para confirmación.
17 In quo abundantius volens Deus ostendere pollicitationis hæredibus, immobilitatem consilii sui, interposuit jusjurandum:
17 Por lo cual, queriendo Dios mostrar más abundantemente á los herederos de la promesa la inmutabilidad de su consejo, interpuso juramento;
18 ut per duas res immobiles, quibus impossibile est mentiri Deum, fortissimum solatium habeamus, qui confugimus ad tenendam propositam spem,
18 Para que por dos cosas inmutables, en las cuales es imposible que Dios mienta, tengamos un fortísimo consuelo, los que nos acogemos á trabarnos de la esperanza propuesta:
19 quam sicut anchoram habemus animæ tutam ac firmam, et incedentem usque ad interiora velaminis,
19 La cual tenemos como segura y firme ancla del alma, y que entra hasta dentro del velo;
20 ubi præcursor pro nobis introivit Jesus, secundum ordinem Melchisedech pontifex factus in æternum.
20 Donde entró por nosotros [como] precursor Jesús, hecho Pontífice eternalmente según el orden de Melchîsedec.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 6:1 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Hebrews (Homily IX)

    You have heard how much Paul found fault with the Hebrews for wishing to be always learning about the same things. And with good reason: "For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need again that some one teach you the elements of the first principles of the oracles of God." ( c. v.

  2. Quotes verse 6:1 Augustine of Hippo, Tractates on the Gospel of John (Chapter XVI — 12, 13)

    … us have regard to the completion; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, of the doctrine of the baptismal font, and of the laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment." This is the copious supply of milk, without which even they cannot live, who have …

    For it is impossible, he saith, for those who were once enlightened, &c., to renew them again unto repentance: seeing they crucify to themselves the Christ afresh, and put Him to an open shame.
