Author is addressing believers Hebrews 6:4-6 "It is impossible to renew them to repentance...;" (check out Hebrews 6:9-12). The author is comparing them to the generation that rejected the promised land in Numbers 14:1-45, and lost the blessing (see Num 14:37). These First Century Jewish believers had ample evidence of what was coming upon Jerusalem—the destruction of 70 A.D., being instructed in the following seven prophetic warnings (see page 12 of Conference Notes): 1. Daniel’s 70 weeks: Messiah “cut off,” Jerusalem destroyed (Dan. 9:26) 2. The warning of John, Israel’s last prophet (Matt. 3:7, 11–12; Luke 3:7) 3. Jesus’ warning: “by your words …” (Matt. 12:37) 13 4. The Pharisees’ response to the parable of the vineyard (Matt. 21:40–41) 5. The seven woes, ending in the prophecy of Jerusalem’s destruction (Matt. 23:36–39) 6. The self-incrimination of the nation before Pilate (Matt. 27:25) 7. The cry of Jesus on the cross and the rent veil (Matt. 27:50–51; John 19:30) The Seven Terminal Generations (see page 13 of Conference Notes) 1. Noah’s generation: Genesis 6:3. 2. The Exodus generation: Genesis 15:12–18. 3. The Exile generation: Daniel 9:1–2; Jeremiah 25:11; 29:10 4. The Messiah generation: Daniel 9:25–26. 5. The 70 A.D. generation: Matt. 23:36; 24. 6. The Rapture generation: Matt. 24:32–35. 7. The Second Advent generation: Matt. 24:36; Matt. 24:22
