June 3rd -- Hebrews 10
Holding Fast
The second "Let us" is connected with hope, although the A.V. obscures the matter by translating elpis in this sole instance by the word faith. "Let us hold fast the confession of our hope, that it waver not; for he is faithful that promised." Hope is grounded upon promise, even the promises made unto the fathers. God is faithful; the promise is sure. Only man's part is in doubt; their beginning was right in their confession of Christ. The end would also be so if they held fast to that confession. Every generation sees its quota of waverers, and to every generation may this appeal be made, "Let us hold fast."
John Carter, The Letter to the Hebrews, pages 192-193
