Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession: Jesus,
2
WEB
who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also Moses was in all his house.
3
WEB
For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, because he who built the house has more honor than the house.
4
WEB
For every house is built by someone; but he who built all things is God.
5
WEB
Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken,
6
WEB
but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house. We are his house, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.
7
WEB
Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, “Today if you will hear his voice,
8
WEB
don’t harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of the trial in the wilderness,
9
WEB
where your fathers tested me and tried me, and saw my deeds for forty years.
10
WEB
Therefore I was displeased with that generation, and said, ‘They always err in their heart, but they didn’t know my ways.’
11
WEB
As I swore in my wrath, ‘They will not enter into my rest.’”
12
WEB
Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there might be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God;
13
WEB
but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called “today”, lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
14
WEB
For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence firm to the end,
15
WEB
while it is said, “Today if you will hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts, as in the rebellion.”
16
WEB
For who, when they heard, rebelled? Wasn’t it all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses?
17
WEB
With whom was he displeased forty years? Wasn’t it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
18
WEB
To whom did he swear that they wouldn’t enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient?
19
WEB
We see that they weren’t able to enter in because of unbelief.
