And let us consider This phrase calls for intentional thought and reflection. The Greek word for "consider" (κατανοέω) implies a deep, attentive observation. In the context of Hebrews, believers are encouraged to focus on their community and the needs of others, rather than solely on personal spiritual growth. This aligns with the broader biblical theme of community and mutual edification found in passages like Philippians 2:4, which urges believers to look not only to their own interests but also to the interests of others. how to spur one another on to love and good deeds Persons / Places / Events 1. The Author of HebrewsTraditionally attributed to Paul, though the exact authorship is uncertain. The author writes to Jewish Christians, encouraging them to remain steadfast in their faith. 2. Jewish Christians The primary audience of the letter, who were facing persecution and were tempted to revert to Judaism. 3. The Early Church The context in which the letter was written, characterized by communal living, shared resources, and mutual encouragement. Teaching Points The Call to CommunityChristians are called to live in community, supporting and encouraging one another in their faith journey. Active Encouragement The Greek word for "spur" (paroxysmos) implies a strong encouragement or provocation. We are to actively and intentionally encourage others towards love and good deeds. Love as a Foundation Love is the foundation of Christian action. Our encouragement should lead others to express love through their actions. Good Deeds as Evidence of Faith Good deeds are not the means of salvation but the evidence of a living faith. They are the natural outflow of a heart transformed by Christ. Intentional Consideration The phrase "let us consider" suggests a deliberate and thoughtful approach to how we can encourage others, requiring us to be mindful and intentional in our interactions.(24) Gradually the writer passes from that which belongs to the individual (Hebrews 10:19-20) to the mutual duties of members of a community. Possibly he knew that amongst those whom he addresses there had existed "provocations" that did not tend towards brotherly love. The strict meaning may simply be--let us take note of one another, to stimulate one another to good works; but in the result, if not in the expression, is included the converse thought, "that we may ourselves be thus provoked."
