It has been suggested that "logos" in Hebrews 4:12 above should be translated as "Christ" (based on the interpretation of many Fathers, such as Oecumenius, Theophylact, Thomas Aquinas, Lyra, Cajetan, Clarius, Justinian, Cornelius a Lapide, Jac. Cappellus, Gomar, Owen, Heinsius, Alting, Clericus, Cramer, Ewald—see [http://www.biblehub.com/commentaries/hebrews/4-12.htm commentaries on Hebrews 4:12]). ''Hebrews'' uses the term "logos" frequently.
