Heb 13:1ย ย Let brotherly love continue.
1. Hospitality – Duty to strangers. Distributing to the necessity of the saints. Rom 12:13, 1Tim 3:2, Titus 1:8, 1 Pe 4:9, #5381 & #5382 Strongs Concordance.ย

Heb 13:8ย ย Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and for ever.ย
7. Duplicate (imitate) Jesus – #5179 #5262 โtuposโ Greek Be a good example. Fashion, feature, form, manner, print, pattern, resemble.ย
Heb 13:9ย ย Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.
