Commentary on Hebrews 6:12
'Be not slothful' repeats the warning against spiritual laziness. Instead, 'be followers of them' (Greek 'mimetai'—imitators) of faithful examples. The dual virtues 'faith and patience' characterize those who inherit promises—believing God's word and waiting for His timing. The examples of faithful believers (detailed in chapter 11) demonstrate that promises often come through long perseverance.
