3 Christ has thus become his people's supreme inspirer of faith. When they become weary on the way, and grow faint at heart because there seems no end to the trials they have to endure, let them consider5t him. He suffered uncomplainingly the hostility and malevolence of sinful people; the recipients of this epistle had not been called upon to endure anything like their Master's sufferings.

The variant reading, which described our Lord's opponents as "sinners against themselves,"52 for all the strength of its attestation does not seem to have much point in this context. Attempts to give it point-such as the observation that "He, whom we so often `contradict,' is our true self"53-do not commend themselves as successful or convincing.
