Hebrews Study Notes—Chapter 13New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition)
-
-
God is well-pleased: In this letter, the Greek verb rendered “is well-pleased” or “to please well” is always used about the relationship between humans and God. This expression shows that imperfect people can meet Jehovah’s standards and rightly feel assured that they have His approval.—Heb 11:5, 6.
with such sacrifices: Jehovah God “is well-pleased” not only when his servants offer “a sacrifice of praise” but also when they do good to others, generously using their time and resources to help them. (Heb 13:15) Jehovah views such actions as sacrifices offered to him. (Jas 1:27; 2:15-17; see also study note on 2Co 9:13.) Jesus said that showing loving concern for others would be a distinguishing mark of his true followers.—Joh 13:34, 35; see also Mt 25:35, 36; Ga 6:10.
