Hebrews 10:24-25 – Becoming an Arena of Supporters
This exhortation to not forsake our assembling but to encourage one another to love and good deeds leads to chapter 11 where we have “Heroes of Faith” who are in 12:1 a “great cloud of witnesses (that) surround us.” The imagery is historical and refers to a stadium full of supporters cheering on the participants. As those heroes of old still support us, let us all be heroes of faith by turning our own assemblies into a great arena, where we are a cloud of witnesses surrounding and encouraging one another to love and good deeds.
