'Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.' The athletic metaphor of 'looking' (aphorōntes) to Jesus as the 'pioneer and perfecter' of faith invites believers to fix their gaze on Christ's own example of faith-endurance as the paradigm for their own race. The phrase 'for the joy set before him' reveals the motivational structure of the cross: suffering was not an end but a means to resurrection joy, a pattern that Hebrews applies to believers running their own races (12:1). The final clause — 'sat down at the right hand of God' — alludes to Psalm 110:1, the most-cited Old Testament verse in the New Testament.

Having our eyes fixed on Jesus, the guide and end of our faith, who went through the pains of the cross, not caring for the shame, because of the joy which was before him, and who has now taken his place at the right hand of God's seat of power.
