“Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.”
We must pay the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away — the warning "proskechein" sets the ethical tone; the reader's response to God's word is not passive reception but active, deliberate adherence. To drift is to be carried along by a current, a passive movement away from the truth.
