People's Commentary (NT)
Hebrews 6:2
Of the doctrine of baptisms. The third of these first principles
which belong to the "foundation" relates to baptism. See Acts 2:38
Ephesians 4:5 Mt 28:19. But why is the plural used? There is but one
baptism in water when the penitent is baptized into Christ (Ephesians 4:5
Galatians 3:27). There is, however, another baptism which was promised
before Christ came which was not of water. See Matthew 3:12. Christ also
promised it before his ascension. Hence there is not only the baptism
of the body in water, but of the spirit in the Holy Spirit, as
fulfilled on the day of Pentecost.
Of laying on of hands. In the primitive church the extraordinary
operation of the Holy Spirit was imparted by the laying on of the
Apostolic hands (Acts 8:17).
Of the resurrection of the dead. One of the fundamental but
primary principles of Christian teaching.
Of eternal judgment. This was comprehended in teaching the
resurrection. All were to be rewarded according to the deeds of this
life.
