\v 1 Therefore, holy brothers, you share in a heavenly calling. Think about Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession.
|
|
\v 2 He was faithful to God, who appointed him, just as Moses was also faithful in God's house.
|
|
\v 3 For Jesus has been considered worthy of greater glory than Moses, because the one who builds a house has more honor than the house itself.
|
|
\v 4 For every house is built by someone, but the one who built everything is God.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 5 On one hand, Moses was faithful as a servant in God's entire house. He was a testimony about the things that were to be spoken of in the future.
|
|
\v 6 But Christ is the Son in charge of God's house. We are his house if we hold fast to our courage and to our proud confidence.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 7 Therefore, it is just as the Holy Spirit says:
|
|
\q "Today, if you hear his voice
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 8 do not harden your hearts
|
|
\q as in the rebellion,
|
|
\q in the time of testing in the wilderness.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 9 This was when your ancestors rebelled by testing me,
|
|
\q and when, during forty years, they saw my deeds.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 10 Therefore I was displeased with that generation.
|
|
\q I said, 'They are always being led astray in their hearts.
|
|
\q They have not known my ways.'
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 11 It is just as I swore in my anger:
|
|
\q 'They will never enter my rest.'"
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\p
|
|
\v 12 Be careful, brothers, so that among you there will not be anyone with an evil heart of unbelief, a heart that turns away from the living God.
|
|
\v 13 Instead, encourage one another daily, as long as it is called "today," so that no one among you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 14 For we have become partners of Christ if we firmly hold to our confidence in him from the beginning to the end.
|
|
\v 15 About this it has been said,
|
|
\q "Today, if you hear his voice,
|
|
\q do not harden your hearts,
|
|
\q as in the rebellion."
|
|
|

\v 16 Who was it who heard God and rebelled? Was it not all those who came out of Egypt through Moses?
|
|
\v 17 With whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the wilderness?
|
|
\v 18 To whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, if it was not to those who disobeyed him?
|
|
\v 19 And we see that they were not able to enter his rest because of unbelief.
