Dedicated to Emma Kok.

(Hebrews XII, 25-26; XIII, 22-25)

The second part is preceded by the reading, which I wrote about here:

Hebrews XIII, 23 — 'ἡμῶν' - 'emon' - 'us' (our).

The end of the Epistle to the Hebrews. Final greetings, encouragement, and hope for a sooner meeting. The news of Paul and Timothy's release from prison for Jesus Christ. A wish of grace. As in many other places in the Epistles, the saints are the faithful — according to the common understanding, it is God's sanctity, not necessarily theirs, and the faithful themselves are on their way to it. The apostle expresses faith in the presence of God and the sanctification of the faithful.

(Mark X, 2-12)
I wrote about the parallel passage in Matthew (Matthew XIX, 3-9) at the following links:

Glory be to Thee, our God, glory be to Thee!
