SEV Biblia, Chapter 5:13

Que cualquiera que participa de la leche, es inhbil para la palabra de la justicia, porque es nio;

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Hebrew 5:13

Verse 13. For every one that useth milk] It is very likely that the
apostle, by using this term, refers to the doctrines of the law, which were only the rudiments of religion, and were intended to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

The word of righteousness] aogov dikaiosunhv? The doctrine of justification. I believe this to be the apostle's meaning. He that uses milk - rests in the ceremonies and observances of the law, is unskilful in the doctrine of justification; for this requires faith in the sacrificial death of the promised Messiah.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 13. For everyone that useth milk , etc..] And sits down contented with the first principles of the Gospel, such as are easily taken in and digested; or makes use of the ceremonial law, as a schoolmaster to teach him the Gospel: is unskilful in the word of righteousness ; the Gospel, which is a doctrine of righteousness; not of works of righteousness done by men, and of justification by them, or of a man's own righteousness; but of the pure, perfect, and everlasting righteousness of Christ: and it is called so, because it is the means of stripping a man of his own righteousness; and of revealing the righteousness of Christ unto him; and of working faith in him to lay hold upon it; and of discovering the agreement there is between the righteousness of Christ, and the justice of God; and of teaching men to live soberly, righteously, and godly: and such are unskilful in it, who either have no knowledge of the doctrine of justification; of the matter of it, Christ's righteousness; of the form of it, by imputation; and of the date of it, before faith: or have a very confused notion of it, joining their own works with Christ's righteousness, for justification, as many judaizing professors did; or who, if they have a notional knowledge of it, have no practical concern in it; do not believe with the heart unto righteousness; have not the experience, sweetness, and power of this doctrine upon them; and do not live lives agreeable to it: for he is a babe . This word is used sometimes by way of commendation, and is expressive of some good characters of the saints; such as harmlessness and inoffensiveness, humility, and meekness, a desire after the sincere milk of the word, freedom from rancour and malice, hypocrisy and guile; but here it is used by way of reproach, and denotes levity and inconstancy, ignorance and non-proficiency, want of digestion of strong meat, and incapacity to take care of themselves, as standing in need of tutors and governors.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 11-14 - Dull hearers make the
preaching of the gospel difficult, and even thos who have some faith may be dull hearers, and slow to believe. Much i looked for from those to whom much is given. To be unskilful, denote want of experience in the things of the gospel. Christian experience in a spiritual sense, taste, or relish of the goodness, sweetness, an excellence of the truths of the gospel. And no tongue can express the satisfaction which the soul receives, from a sense of Divine goodness grace, and love to it in Christ __________________________________________________________________

13. Useth (metecwn). Rend. partakes of. See on ch. i. 9; ii. 14; iii. 1, 14. Unskilful (apeirov). N.T.o . Rend.
unskilled or inexperienced.

In the word of righteousness (logou dikaiosunhv). The phrase N.T.o . The genitive dikaiosunhv of righteousness is combined in N.T. with way, God, gift, instruments, servants, law, ministration, fruit and fruits, ministers, hope, breastplate, crown, king, preacher. It is a mistake to attempt to give the phrase here a concrete meaning. It signifies simply a word of normally right character. It is not = the Christian revelation, which would require the article. Probably, however, in the foreground of the writer's thought was the word spoken by the Son (ch. i. 2); the salvation which at first was spoken by the Lord (ch. ii. 3). 191 A babe (nhpiov). See on Rom. ii. 20; 1 Cor. iii. 1; Eph. iv. 14.
