Overcoming Unbelief

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 22, 2022

We see that God speaks highly of a man named Caleb that he would be the only one to enter into the Promised Land which God promised he would give to him and his descendants. Not only did Caleb receive commendation from God, there was a promise of God’s blessing on his descendants too.

He has remained faithful to me, and I will give him and his descendants the land that he has explored.'” (GNB) A background about Caleb We see that God speaks highly of a man named Caleb that ...read more

Contributed by John Lowe on Oct 26, 2019

Next to Abraham, Moses was undoubtedly the man most revered by the Jewish people. To go back to the Law meant to go back to Moses, and the recipients of this letter to the Hebrews were sorely tempted to do just that.

The Reward Motive

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021

Scolding and punishing them did not improve things, and so he tried offering them a reward. Tradition has it that he took thin strips of dough and twisted them ...read more
