COntextual understanding is important as well.....Just throwing out simplistic examples without full contextual exposition really is pointless

" COntextual understanding is important as well. "

Amen, when you take it out of " Context " you can con anyone.

For example in the book of Hebrew,<
Just who was it directly written to ?<
of course, the Hebrews.

Yes, it was written to the Hebrews, but, it was also written for us also for our edification.

Many mis-understandings of the strong warnings in chapter 6 and chapter 10 unless you read it in it's proper context.
Remember it was written to Hebrews who have " HEARD " the message of the Gospel ( Gospel means, God's word ) but who have never went all the way and believed and put their faith in Jesus Christ because it was not mixed with belief.
Why do you think the writer of the book of Hebrews goes well into what happened to the children of Israel just before God tried to bring them into the promised land the first time ?
They didn't enter into God's promised land and into his rest because of unbelief.
The writer of the book of Hebrews was warning these certain Hebrews who must have heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ and were turned back by the Judisers.... turned back to works, the law.
They were turned back and rejected, Jesus Christ, the cross of Christ, they rejected God's gift of salvation, God's gift of Righteousness by faith apart from works.
