hebrews 10:28 Anyone who has set aside the Law of Moses dies without mercy on [the testimony of] two or three witnesses.

< Hebrews 10:26
Hebrews 10:28 >

      28. Compare Heb 2:2, 3; 12:25.
      despised--"set at naught" [ALFORD]: utterly and heinously violated, not merely some minor detail, but the whole law and covenant; for example, by idolatry (De 17:2-7). So here apostasy answers to such an utter violation of the old covenant.
      died--Greek, "dies": the normal punishment of such transgression, then still in force.
      without mercy--literally, "mercies": removal out of the pale of mitigation, or a respite of his doom.
      under--on the evidence of.
