Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.
All Commentaries on Hebrews 2:1 Go To Hebrews 2
John Chrysostom
AD 407
And having spoken concerning the Son, both what related to the Economy, and what related to the Creation, and to His sovereignty, and having shown His co-equal dignity, and that as absolute Master He rules not men only but also the powers above, he next exhorts them, having made out his argument, that we ought to give heed to the things which have been heard. Hebrews 2:1 Wherefore we ought to give more earnest heed (says he) to the things which we have heard. Why more earnest? Here he meant more earnest than to the Law: but he suppressed the actual expression of it, and yet makes it plain in the course of reasoning, not in the way of counsel, nor of exhortation. For so it was better.
