B.
Superior to Moses — as an Apostle worthy of more glory and honor
3:1-6
Heb. 3
:1
3:1
Therefore,
1holy brothers,
2apartakers of a
3heavenly bcalling, consider the
4cApostle and
dHigh Priest of our confession, Jesus,
Heb. 3
:2
3:2
Who was faithful to Him who constituted Him, as also
aMoses was in all His
bhouse.
Heb. 3
:3
3:3
For He has been counted worthy of more
1aglory than Moses, by as much as He who
2bbuilt the house has more
1honor than
3the house.
Heb. 3
:4
3:4
For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God.
Heb. 3
:5
3:5
And aMoses was faithful in all His house as a
1servant, for a
2testimony of the things to be spoken later;
Heb. 3
:6
3:6
But Christ
was faithful as a Son over His house, whose
1ahouse we are if indeed we hold fast the boldness and the boast of
bhope cfirm to the end.

(The Second Warning — Do Not Come Short of the Promised Rest)
3:7—4:13
Heb. 3
:7
3:7
1Therefore, even as the Holy
aSpirit says,
b"Today if you hear His voice,
Heb. 3
:8
3:8
Do not harden your hearts as in the provocation, in the day of trial in the wilderness,
Heb. 3
:9
3:9
Where your fathers
atried Me by testing
Me and saw My works for forty years.
Heb. 3
:10
3:10
Therefore I was
adispleased with this
bgeneration, and I said, They always
1go astray in their heart, and they have not known My
2ways;
Heb. 3
:11
3:11
As I swore in My wrath,
1aThey shall not enter into My rest!''
Heb. 3
:12
3:12
Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief in
1falling away from the
aliving God.
Heb. 3
:13
3:13
But aexhort one another each day, as long as it is called "today," lest any one of you be hardened by the
bdeceitfulness of sin."
Heb. 3
:14
3:14
For we have become
1apartners of Christ, if indeed we hold fast the beginning of the assurance
bfirm to the end,
Heb. 3
:15
3:15
While it is said,
a"Today if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts as in the provocation.''
Heb. 3
:16
3:16
For who
aprovoked Him when they heard? Indeed was it
bnot all who came out of Egypt by
1Moses?
Heb. 3
:17
3:17
And with whom was He
adispleased for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose carcasses
bfell in the wilderness?
Heb. 3
:18
3:18
And to whom did He swear that they should
anot enter into His rest, except to the
1bdisobedient?
Heb. 3
:19
3:19
And we see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief.
