Study Note

The address 'holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus' calls the community to a focused contemplation of Christ's dual office. The dual title — Apostle (sent from God) and High Priest (mediating to God) — is unique in the New Testament and establishes the two-directional movement of Christ's mediatorial work: from heaven to earth and from earth to heaven. The 'consider' (katanoesate) implies not passing thought but sustained theological reflection — the intellectual activity that the entire Christological section of Hebrews (chapters 3-10) is designed to sustain. The title 'partakers of the heavenly calling' identifies the community's identity as oriented toward the eschatological rest that the following section (3:7-4:13) expounds.
