"For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper
than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit,
joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart."
Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God - Preached,
Hebrews 4:2
and armed with threatenings, Hebrews 4:3 Is
living and powerful - Attended with the power of the living God, and conveying
either life or death to the hearers. Sharper than any two - edged sword -
Penetrating the heart more than this does the body. Piercing - Quite through,
and laying open. The soul and spirit, joints and marrow - The inmost recesses
of the mind, which the apostle beautifully and strongly expresses by this heap
of figurative words. And is a discerner - Not only of the thoughts, but also of
the intentions.
