Commentary

Commentary on Hebrews 12:14

Theological / Devotional

Follow peace. Or, “strive for peace” (RSV). Leaving the personal problems of the individual Christian, the writer now turns to the Christian’s relationship with his fellow men. For comment on the admonition to “follow peace” see on Romans 12:18; 1 Peter 3:11; see Psalm 34:14.

Holiness. Only the pure in heart can expect to see God (see on Matthew 5:8).

See the Lord. That is, in peace.
