You are in danger of going astray or falling into sin, but the Lord has provided overseers (pastors, elders) in the church, people with the responsibilty of watching out for danger guiding those in danger back to safety. This is work that must be done diligently, with great care. Indeed each of you can gently and wisely watch out for each other.

The exhortation to follow is not a passive word. It demands action. The idea is that you should follow peace with all men and holiness with the same zeal that Saul of Tarsus had when he was persecuting the Church.

The first century Christians were experiencing afflictions and discouragement. At the same time, they had forgotten that God chastens those whom he loves.

Hebrews 11 gave examples of faith and how this ought to effect the way we live. This letter was originally written to backward-lookingHebrew Christians in the first century. They were told that the Old Testament saints had not received the promise of being made perfect, not without the New Testament believers. The 'us' includes Christians today who are trusting in Jesus. As for the 'Great Cloud Of Witnesses'? Are these the Old Testament saints? No, I would say they are far too busy worshipping Jesus for this. The witness here is the testimony of the men and women of faith; what they achieved for God's glory.

We have seen a whole list of the faithful, now we come to the 'others'. Who were those others? We are not told their names, but we read here of those who were stoned to death. The Lord Jesus spoke of them as those who stoned the prophets. They had killed those who were sent to them. We read of Jeremiah being beaten, thrown into a pit and then rescued through the courage of one man.
