Hebrews 5:11-14

11Concerning 1him we have much to say, and it is difficult to explain, since you have become 2poor listeners.

12For though 3by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you 4the 56elementary principles of the 7actual words of God, and you have come to need 8milk and not solid food.

13For everyone who partakes only of milk is unacquainted with the word of righteousness, for he is an 9infant.

14But solid food is for 10the mature, who because of practice have their senses 11trained to 12distinguish between good and evil.
