It’s a comfort to know that Jesus physically experienced what out is to be a human in order to be a better high priest for us.
End of the chapter is a reminder that discernment requires continual training—the oracles of God are the guardrails that help us distinguish between right and wrong and train that spiritual sense of discernment.
Telling the difference between good and evil—and WHO gets to decide that difference—has been a problem since the garden. Do we let God tell us the difference, or do we try to tell Him the difference?
Spiritual Immaturity
12 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food. 13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe. 14 But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
Where am I in my maturity? Am I open to hear all that God has to say?

Chapter 5
Spiritual Immaturity
12 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food. 13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe. 14 But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
teach you again = because of regression.
senses exercised = godly perception
Are things brought out to me in sermons.
