He doth four times in this Epistle call the Hebrews unto this especial Duty of an Intense Consideration of the things proposed unto them, as we have translated his words, and that not unduly, Chap. 3. 1. Chap. 10. 24. Chap. 12. 3. and in this place, Chap. 3. 1. Chap. 10. 24. we have the same word in the Original, [Greek or Hebrew], whose Importance hath been declared on Chap. 3. 1. Chap. 12. 2. the word is [Greek or Hebrew], which signifies to call things unto a due Reckoning and Account, so as to conform our minds unto them, which is our great Duty with respect unto the patient Sufferings of Christ there intended. The word here used signifies diligently to behold, contemplate on, or to look into the things proposed unto us. He had before warned them that what he had to Discourse on this Subject was difficult and hard to be understood, but withal such was its Use and Excellency that neither would he refrain from declaring of them, nor ought they to spare any pains in a diligent Enquiry into them. Having therefore laid down the matter of Fact, and stated the whole Subject which he designed to treat upon, he adds their Duty with respect thereunto. And this in the first place is that they would heedfully and diligently look into them.
