⁹Consequently a sabbath rest remains for the people of God. ¹⁰For the one who has entered into his rest has also himself rested from his works, just as God did from his own works.

¹¹Therefore, let us make every effort to enter into that rest, in order that no one may fall in the same pattern of disobedience. ¹²For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any double-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, both joints and marrow, and able to judge the reflections and thoughts of the heart. ¹³And no creature is hidden in the sight of him, but all things are naked and laid bare to the eyes of him to whom we must give our account^j.

Jesus Our Great High Priest

¹⁴Therefore, because we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession. ¹⁵For we do not have a high priest who is not able to sympathize with our weaknesses, but who has been tempted in all things in the same way, without sin. ¹⁶Therefore let us approach with confidence to the throne of grace, in order that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Read in Logos

Hebrews 4:12: For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
