Hebrews 4:5 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest. And in this place again - In the ninety-fifth Psalm, already quoted, Psalms 95:3. This was a second rest which the Lord promised to the believing, obedient seed of Abraham; and as it was spoken of in the days of David, when the Jews actually possessed this long promised Canaan, therefore it is evident that that was not the rest which God intended, as the next verse shows.
