⁷ because he is our God and we are the people he takes care of, the sheep that he tends. Today listen to what he says: ⁸ "Do not be stubborn, as your ancestors were at Meribah, as they were that day at Massah in the desert. ⁹ There your ancestors tested me and tried me even though they saw what I did. ¹⁰ I was angry with those people for forty years. I said, ‘They are not loyal to me and have not understood my ways.' ¹¹ I was angry and made a promise, ‘They will never enter my rest.'"

Gill's Notes on the Bible

When your fathers tempted me,.... Or, "where" i; that is, in the wilderness, particularly at Meribah and Massah; it was Christ they tempted, as appears from 1 Corinthians 10:9

proved me: had proof of his power, goodness, and mercy, in providing for them, and in the preservation of them: or "tried" k him, his patience, longsuffering, and forbearance, by their repeated provocations of him:

and saw my work; his work of judgment upon their enemies the Egyptians, by inflicting plagues upon them, and by the destruction of Pharaoh and his host at the Red sea; and his work of goodness to them, in bringing them out of bondage, leading them through the Red sea safely, raining manna about their tents, and giving them water out of the rock; or particularly his work in consuming them in the wilderness, as he swore he would, and which they saw with their eyes, and was near forty years a doing. The Syriac version joins the "forty years" at the beginning of the next verse to this; the phrase standing in such a situation as to be connected with both, and is true of each; so the apostle uses it both ways, Hebrews 3:9.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

When your fathers - Your ancestors. See this verse explained in the notes on Hebrews 3:9.

Tempted me - Tried me; tried my patience, to see how much I would bear. This does not mean, as it commonly does now with us, to place inducements before one to lead him into sin, but to try one - to put his patience to the test. This they did, in the case referred to, by their obduracy and evil conduct.

Proved me - See the notes at Hebrews 3:9. “And saw my work.” Though they constantly saw my work; saw my gracious interpositions; saw what I was doing for their own good.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 95:9. When your fathers tempted me — Tried me, by their insolence, unbelief, and blasphemy. They proved me - they had full proof of my power to save and to destroy. There they saw my works - they saw that nothing was too hard for God.
