SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:15
Entre tanto que se dice: Si oyereis HOY su voz, no endurezcis vuestros corazones, como en la provocacin.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Hebrew 3:15
Verse 15. While it is said, To-day] You may see the necessity of perseverance from the saying, "Today, if ye will hear his voice," therefore harden not your hearts - do not neglect so great a salvation; hold fast what ye have obtained, and let no man take your crown. See on ver. 7, 8, 9, and 12.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 15. While it is said today , etc..] Exhort one another, and hold fast Christ and his Gospel, and faith and confidence therein; what follows is a repetition of the citation in ( Hebrews 3:7,8) in order to make a further improvement of it; which shows, that the words belong to the present times of the Gospel, and contain in them matter of moment, and great concern; and that Scripture instructions and exhortations are of perpetual use.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 14-19 - The saints' privilege is, they are made partakers of Christ, that is of the Spirit, the nature, graces, righteousness, and life of Christ they are interested in all Christ is, in all he has done, or will do The same spirit with which Christians set out in the ways of God, the should maintain unto the end. Perseverance in faith is the bes evidence of the sincerity of our faith. Hearing the word often is means of salvation, yet, if not hearkened to, it will expose more to the Divine wrath. The happiness of being partakers of Christ and his complete salvation, and the fear of God's wrath and eternal misery should stir us up to persevere in the life of obedient faith. Let u beware of trusting to outward privileges or professions, and pray to be numbered with the true believers who enter heaven, when all others fai because of unbelief. As our obedience follows according to the power of our faith, so our sins and want of care are according to the prevailin of unbelief in us __________________________________________________________________

15. While it is said (en tw legesqai). The formula by which the writer reverts to the previous citation. Connect with if we hold fast. The exhortation of ver. 12 answered to Psalm 95; so the condition of fulfillment in ver. 14 is declared to rest on the same Scripture. Only on the ground of what is said in that Psalm does the holding fast come to pass. Rend. therefore, "We are fellows of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast unto the end, seeing it is said," etc.
