{Which} (h(886e)). Which hope. What would life be without this
blessed hope based on Christ as our Redeemer? {As an anchor of
the soul} (h(9373) agkuran t(8873) psuch(8873)). Old word, literally in  Ac
27:29 , figuratively here, only N.T. examples. The ancient
anchors were much like the modern ones with iron hooks to grapple
the rocks and so hold on to prevent shipwreck ( 1Ti 1:19 ). {Both
sure and steadfast} (asphal(8820)te kai bebaian). This anchor of
hope will not slip (alpha privative and sphall(935c), to totter) or
lose its grip (ebaia, from ain(935c), to go, firm, trusty).
{That which is within the veil} (	o es(9374)eron tou
katapetasmatos). The Holy of Holies, "the inner part of the
veil" (the space behind the veil), in N.T. only here and  Ac
16:24  (of the inner prison). The anchor is out of sight, but it
holds. That is what matters.
