Hebrews 4:2
Douay-Rheims
For unto us also it hath been declared, in like manner as unto them. But the word of hearing did not profit them, not being mixed with faith of those things they heard.
Francis Patrick Kenrick
This is thought to contain an allusion to the process of digestion, by which the food is incorporated with us. Faith serves to appropriate to us the blessings which are proclaimed.
