G2532–καί–kai

Of whom we have much to say which it is hard to make clear, because you are slow of hearing.

καὶ kai “and”

And though by this time it would be right for you to be teachers, you still have need of someone to give you teaching about the first simple rules of God's revelation; you have become like babies who have need of milk, and not of solid food.

καὶ kai “Even”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

But solid food is for men of full growth, even for those whose senses are trained by use to see what is good and what is evil.

καὶ kai “and”

For this reason let us go on from the first things about Christ to full growth; not building again that on which it is based, that is, the turning of the heart from dead works, and faith in God,

καὶ kai “and”

The teaching of baptisms, and of the putting on of hands, and of the future life of the dead, and of the judging on the last day.

καὶ kai “and”

Now we will do this, if God lets us.

καὶ kai “And”

As for those who at one time saw the light, tasting the good things from heaven, and having their part in the Holy Spirit,

καὶ kai “and”

With knowledge of the good word of God, and of the powers of the coming time,

καὶ kai “and”

And then let themselves be turned away, it is not possible for their hearts to be made new a second time; because they themselves put the Son of God on the cross again, openly shaming him.

καὶ kai “and then”καὶ kai “and”

For a land, drinking in the frequent rain and producing good plants for those for whom it is worked, has a blessing from God:

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “also”

But if it sends up thorns and evil plants, it is of no use and is ready to be cursed; its only end is to be burned.

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

But, my loved ones, though we say this, we are certain that you have better things in you, things which go with salvation;

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “even”

For God is true, and will not put away from him the memory of your work and of your love for his name, in the help which you gave and still give to the saints.

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

So that you may not be slow in heart, but may take as your example those to whom God has given their heritage, because of their faith and their long waiting.

καὶ kai “and”

Saying, Be certain that I will give you my blessing, and make your numbers very great.

καὶ kai “and”

And so, when he had been waiting calmly for a long time, God's word to him was put into effect.

καὶ kai “And”

For men at all times make their oaths by what is greater; and any argument is ended by the decision of the oath.

καὶ kai “and”

And this hope is like a strong band for our souls, fixed and certain, and going in to that which is inside the veil;

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

For this Melchizedek, the king of Salem, a priest of the Most High God, who gave Abraham his blessing, meeting him when he came back after putting the kings to death,

καὶ kai “and”

And to whom Abraham gave a tenth part of everything which he had, being first named King of righteousness, and then in addition, King of Salem, that is to say, King of peace;

καὶ kai “also”καὶ kai “also”

Now see how great this man was, to whom our father Abraham gave a tenth part of what he had got in the fight.

καὶ kai “even”

And it is true that by the law, those of the sons of Levi who have the position of priests may take a tenth part of the people's goods; that is to say, they take it from their brothers though these are the sons of Abraham.

καὶ kai “And”

But this man, who was not of their family, took the tenth from Abraham, and gave a blessing to him to whom God had given his undertaking.

καὶ kai “and”

Now at the present time, men over whom death has power take the tenth; but then it was taken by one of whom it is witnessed that he is living.

καὶ kai “And”

And we may say that in Abraham, even Levi, who has a right to take the tenth part, gave it;

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “also”
