Hebrews 5:11-13
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
This Is Hard To Explain To You
11 ... concerning whom[a] our message-to-speak is great[b] and hard-to-interpret[c] so as to speak, since you have become sluggish[d] in the hearing.
For You Are Still Immature In The Word
12 For indeed, [although] being obligated to be teachers because of the time, you again have a need that someone be teaching you the elements[e] of [f] the beginning[g] concerning the oracles[h] of God. And you have become ones having a need of milk and not of solid[i] food. 13 For everyone partaking of milk is inexperienced in the word of [j] righteousness, for he is an infant.
