John Gill
INTRODUCTION TO Hebrews 3 The apostle having discoursed, in the preceding chapters, concerning the dignity of Christ's person, and his wondrous grace in the assumption of human nature, and suffering in the room and stead of his people, exhorts the Hebrews in this to a serious consideration of him, attention to him, and faith in him, and constancy in it; the arguments he uses to engage them to...

But exhort one another daily,.... In order to prevent unbelief and apostasy.

Charles H. Spurgeon
But exhort one another daily, while it is called Today; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
