People's Commentary (NT)
Hebrews 3:11
So I sware in my wrath. A figure of speech which means that God,
indignant at their unbelief and sin, declared they should not enter
Canaan. See Numbers 14:20-35.
They shall not enter into my rest. Canaan, while the Israelites
were yet in bondage, was promised as a land of rest. On the weary
journey in the wilderness it was still looked to as the rest. To
prohibit from entering the rest was then to prohibit from entering
Canaan. It is, however, a type of heaven, the land of eternal rest.
Hence, the warnings that are pointed out in the next verse.
