ثُمَّ قَدْ كَانَ لَنَا آبَاءُ أَجْسَادِنَا مُؤَدِّبِينَ، وَكُنَّا نَهَابُهُمْ. أَفَلاَ نَخْضَعُ بِالأَوْلَى جِدًّا لأَبِي الأَرْوَاحِ، فَنَحْيَا؟

fathers . . . which corrected us--rather as Greek, "We had the fathers of our flesh as correctors." subjection--See the punishment of insubordination, Deu 21:18. Father of spirits--contrasted with "the fathers of our flesh." "Generation by men is carnal, by God is spiritual" [BENGEL]. As "Father of spirits," He is both the Originator, and the Providential and Gracious Sustainer, at once of animal and spiritual life. Compare "and LIVE," namely, spiritually; also Heb 12:10, "that we might be partakers of His holiness" (Pe2 1:4). God is a spirit Himself, and the Creator of spirits like Himself, in contrast to men who are flesh, and the progenitors of flesh (Joh 3:6). Jesus our pattern "learned obedience" experimentally by suffering (Heb 5:8). and live--and so, thereby live spiritually and eternally.
افتح المصدر ↗The apostle, in this chapter, applies what he has collected in the chapter foregoing, and makes use of it as a great motive to patience and perseverance in the Christian faith and state, pressing home the argument, I. From a greater example than he had yet mentioned, and that is Christ himself (Heb 12:1-3). II. From the gentle and gracious nature of the afflictions they endured in their Christian course (Heb 12:4-17). III. From the communion and conformity between the state of the gospel-church on earth and the triumphant church in heaven (Heb 12:18 to the end).
افتح المصدر ↗12:9 The author argues from lesser to greater (see study note on 9:14). Here, the lesser situation is the respect shown to an earthly father when he is giving discipline. We should submit even more to the discipline of the Father of our spirits in the more important context of our relationship with God. We should adopt a posture of yielding to God as to a good Father, trusting that he is helping us grow even through painful circumstances.

فَخَرَّا عَلَى وَجْهَيْهِمَا وَقَالاَ: «اللّهُمَّ، إِلهَ أَرْوَاحِ جَمِيعِ الْبَشَرِ، هَلْ يُخْطِئُ رَجُلٌ وَاحِدٌ فَتَسْخَطَ عَلَى كُلِّ الْجَمَاعَةِ؟»
«لِيُوَكِّلِ الرَّبُّ إِلهُ أَرْوَاحِ جَمِيعِ الْبَشَرِ رَجُلاً عَلَى الْجَمَاعَةِ،
هكَذَا يَقُولُ اللهُ الرَّبُّ، خَالِقُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَنَاشِرُهَا، بَاسِطُ الأَرْضِ وَنَتَائِجِِهَا، مُعْطِي الشَّعْبِ عَلَيْهَا نَسَمَةً، وَالسَّاكِنِينَ فِيهَا رُوحًا:
اَلْمَوْلُودُ مِنَ الْجَسَدِ جَسَدٌ هُوَ، وَالْمَوْلُودُ مِنَ الرُّوحِ هُوَ رُوحٌ.
الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ نَفَسُ كُلِّ حَيٍّ وَرُوحُ كُلِّ الْبَشَرِ.
وَحْيُ كَلاَمِ الرَّبِّ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ. يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ بَاسِطُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمُؤَسِّسُ الأَرْضِ وَجَابِلُ رُوحِ الإِنْسَانِ فِي دَاخِلِهِ:
أَكْرِمْ أَبَاكَ وَأُمَّكَ لِكَيْ تَطُولَ أَيَّامُكَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ الرَّبُّ إِلهُكَ.
أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ، بِهذِهِ يَحْيَوْنَ، وَبِهَا كُلُّ حَيَاةِ رُوحِي فَتَشْفِينِي وَتُحْيِينِي.
فَاخْضَعُوا ِللهِ. قَاوِمُوا إِبْلِيسَ فَيَهْرُبَ مِنْكُمْ.
لأَنِّي لاَ أُخَاصِمُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ، وَلاَ أَغْضَبُ إِلَى الدَّهْرِ. لأَنَّ الرُّوحَ يُغْشَى عَلَيْهَا أَمَامِي، وَالنَّسَمَاتُ الَّتِي صَنَعْتُهَا.
