Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerses 6, 7. - Since therefore it remains that some should enter into it, and they to whom the good tidings were before preached entered not in because of disobedience, he again defineth a certain day, saying in David, after so long a time, To-day; as it hath been before said, To-day, if ye will hear his voice, etc. The continued openness of the rest, and the failure of the Israelites of old to enter it, are the reasons why a further day for entering was defined in the psalm.

Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) The substance of the preceding verses may be thus expressed: There is a rest of God, into which some are to enter with God,--a rest not yet entered at the time of the wandering in the wilderness, and therefore not that which followed the work of creation,--a rest from which some were excluded because of unbelief. These five particulars are repeated in substance in the present verse: "Seeing, therefore, it is (still) left that some should enter in, and they to whom formerly glad tidings were declared entered not in because of disobedience, He again," &c. "Disobedience"--though Hebrews 4:2 speaks of unbelief as the cause: see Note on Hebrews 3:18. In John 3:36, the transition from "believeth" to "obeyeth" is equally striking.
