Hebrews 4:4-8

4In the Bible God has spoken about the seventh day like this: ‘God rested from all his work on the seventh day.’

5As we have already seen, God said something later about his rest: ‘They will never arrive in my special place of rest.’

6So we see that there is still a chance for people to go to God's place of rest. But those people who first heard God's message in the wilderness refused to obey him. As a result, they did not arrive in his special place of rest.

7So God chose another time for people to go to his place of rest. He called it ‘Today’. A long time after Moses, David spoke God's message. As we have already seen, he said: ‘You must listen when you hear God speak today. Do not refuse to obey him.’

8This shows that Joshua did not bring God's people to the place where they could rest. Later, God had to speak again about another day of rest.
