“For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. is unskillful: Gr. hath no experience”
Hebrews 5:13 (KJV)
Commentary on Hebrews 5:13
Those on milk are 'unskilled in the word of righteousness' (Greek 'apeiros' - inexperienced) and are 'infants' (Greek 'nēpios'). This isn't about salvation status but maturity level. The 'word of righteousness' likely refers to gospel truth about justification and righteous living. Reformed theology distinguishes between positional righteousness (imputed) and progressive righteousness (sanctification), both learned through Scripture.
