Study Lenses

The verse centers on "foorth", "therefore", "campe", "bearing", and "reproch". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "foorth" and "therefore", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.

The nearby context moves from verse 12's "Therefore euen Iesus that he might sanctifie..." into verse 14's "For here haue we no continuing citie...", so "foorth" and "therefore" belong inside that flow. In Hebrews context, the local focus is Christ, faith, and discipleship.

A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "foorth" and "therefore" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
