And again in the passage above He says
And again
This phrase indicates a repetition or reinforcement of a previous statement. In the context of Hebrews, the author often revisits Old Testament scriptures to emphasize the continuity and fulfillment of God's promises through Christ. The Greek word used here, "palin," suggests a deliberate return to a significant point, underscoring the importance of the message being conveyed. This repetition serves to remind the readers of the consistency and reliability of God's word.

in the passage above
This refers to a previously mentioned scripture, specifically Psalm 95:11, which is frequently cited in Hebrews to illustrate the theme of rest and disobedience. The author of Hebrews uses this reference to connect the historical context of Israel's unbelief with the present call to faith and obedience. The phrase "in the passage above" serves as a bridge, linking the Old Testament narrative with the New Testament revelation, highlighting the timeless relevance of God's word.

He says
The use of "He" here refers to God as the ultimate speaker of scripture. This attribution emphasizes the divine authority and inspiration of the biblical text. In the context of Hebrews, the author consistently presents scripture as the voice of God, speaking directly to the readers. This underscores the belief in the Bible as the living word of God, relevant and authoritative for all generations. The phrase "He says" invites the reader to listen attentively and respond faithfully to God's message.
