Listen from:
Thus encouraging themselves, their hearts are tuned to a song of joy and praise, so lively and fresh are their anticipations. The Lord by His Spirit seems to break in on all this anticipated joy, not to check or alter it, but just to give holy admonition in the midst of it (Psa. 95:7-11). And this interruption, or this voice of the Spirit, acts in two ways; it tells them that there is a rest (see Heb. 4); it tells them also that they must take heed and avoid all that which in their fathers caused a loss of that rest. (See Heb. 3.) For they are still in spirit in the wilderness or place of discipline—still, as of old, between Egypt and Canaan, and therefore in need of such admonition. The Apostle’s commentaries on these chapters give this character to this voice. But we know surely that the admonition is rightly applied to us all.
