Jesus Has More Glory Than Moses

1Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;

2Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house.

3For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, because he who has built the house has more honor than the house.

4For every house is built by some man; but he that built all things is God.

5And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken later;

6But 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.

Warning Against Unbelief

7Therefore (as the Holy Spirit says, Today if you will hear his voice,

8Harden not your hearts, as in the rebellion, in the day of testing in the wilderness:

9When your fathers tested me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.

10Therefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do always err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.

11So I swore in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)

12Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.

13But exhort one another daily, while it is called Today; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

14For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast unto the end;

15While it is said, Today if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.

16For some, when they had heard, did provoke: yet not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.

17But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

18And to whom swore he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?

19So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
