  7.

  8. “The entire passage is designed to teach how faith operates, what faith can do for us, and what faith can accomplish through us. The readers were facing hard times that were not self-created, and they were considering just giving up and turning back. The writer is encouraging them to keep on going. If they could hang in with what they faced (and if the people in chapter 11 could hang in with what they faced), then surely we can find the strength, through faith, to hang on in our situations.” -- Wood Conclusion
