Hebrews 12

Believers are exhorted to run the race of faith by laying aside sin, fixing eyes on Jesus who endured the cross, and enduring God's discipline as sons, with Esau as a warning against immorality and a root of bitterness.[1][2][3] The chapter contrasts the terrifying Mount Sinai (Σινᾶ) of the old covenant with joyful Mount Zion (Σιών), the heavenly Jerusalem and unshakable kingdom, urging reverence since Theos is a consuming fire.[1][2][3]
