Commentary on Hebrews 3:16
A rhetorical question exposes the tragedy: 'who were they that heard and rebelled?' Answer: those who came out of Egypt. Initial deliverance doesn't guarantee final salvation - a sobering truth. This passage is often cited in Reformed discussions of apostasy, showing that outward participation in God's people doesn't guarantee regeneration. True faith perseveres; those who fall away show they never truly believed (1 John 2:19).
