Jesus Our Apostle and High Priest
Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;
Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;
Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house.
For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honour than the house.
But Jesus deserves far more glory than Moses, just as a person who builds a house deserves more praise than the house itself.
For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God.
For every house has a builder, but the one who built everything is God.
And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after;
Moses was certainly faithful in God’s house as a servant. His work was an illustration of the truths God would reveal later.
But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.
Do Not Harden Your Hearts
Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,
Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,
That is why the Holy Spirit says,
“Today when you hear his voice,
“Today when you hear his voice,
Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
don’t harden your hearts
as Israel did when they rebelled,
when they tested me in the wilderness.
as Israel did when they rebelled,
when they tested me in the wilderness.
When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.
There your ancestors tested and tried my patience,
even though they saw my miracles for forty years.
even though they saw my miracles for forty years.
Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.
So I was angry with them, and I said,
‘Their hearts always turn away from me.
They refuse to do what I tell them.’
‘Their hearts always turn away from me.
They refuse to do what I tell them.’
So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
The Dangers of Unbelief
Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
You must warn each other every day, while it is still “today,” so that none of you will be deceived by sin and hardened against God.
For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;
For if we are faithful to the end, trusting God just as firmly as when we first believed, we will share in all that belongs to Christ.
While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
And who was it who rebelled against God, even though they heard his voice? Wasn’t it the people Moses led out of Egypt?
But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?
And who made God angry for forty years? Wasn’t it the people who sinned, whose corpses lay in the wilderness?
And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
And to whom was God speaking when he took an oath that they would never enter his rest? Wasn’t it the people who disobeyed him?
