Hebrews 12:26
Then shook ( εσαλευσεν τοτε ). Old verb as in Mt 11:7.He hath promised ( επηγγελτα ). Perfect middle indicative of επαγγελλω and it still holds. He quotes Hag 2:6.
Will I make to tremble ( σεισω ). Old and strong verb (here future active) σειω, to agitate, to cause to tremble as in Mt 21:10. The author applies this "yet once more" ( ετ απαξ ) and the reference to heaven ( τον ουρανον ) to the second and final "shaking" at the Second Coming of Jesus Christ for judgement (9:28).
