hebrews 13:22 And I beseech you, brethren, suffer the word of exhortation: for I have written a letter unto you in few words.

hebrews 13:22 But I urge you, brethren, bear with this word of exhortation, for I have written to you briefly.

22. suffer the word--The Hebrews not being the section of the Church assigned to Paul (but the Gentiles), he uses gentle entreaty, rather than authoritative command.
few words--compared with what might be said on so important a subject. Few, in an Epistle which is more of a treatise than an Epistle (compare 1Pe 5:12). On the seeming inconsistency with Ga 6:11, compare Note, see on Ga 6:11.

hebrews 13:22 But I urge you, brethren, bear with this word of exhortation, for I have written to you briefly.
