King James | Heb 3:18 | And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not? |
Word | American Tract Society - Definition |
REST | In Ac 9:31, refers to the respite from persecution enjoyed by the Christians in Palestine, after the conversion of Saul of Tarsus, during the last two years of Caligula's short reign, A. D. 39 and 40, when the Jews were so harassed by the attempts of the emperor to force them to worship him as a god, that they forbore to afflict the followers of Christ. |
