Exegesis
The adversative conjunction alla introduces the affirming identity marked by pisteōs {πίστεως | pí-ste-ōs} “faith,” with eis peripoíēsis psuchēs {εἰς περιποίησιν ψυχῆς | eis pe-ri-poí-ē-sin psy-khês} “into the preservation of soul” mirroring the first eis clause in deliberate antithesis. This rhetorical parallelism underscores the choice between apostasy and persevering faith.
In context — Hebrews 10:39
But we are not of shrinking back into destruction, but of faith to the preserving of the soul .
