Chapter 3
Hebr ISV 3:1  Christ Is Superior to MosesTherefore, holy brothers, partners in a heavenly calling, keep your focus on Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession.
Hebr ISV 3:2  He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was in all God'sLit. his household.
Hebr ISV 3:3  For he is worthy of greater glory than Moses in the same way that the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself.
Hebr ISV 3:4  After all, every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything.
Hebr ISV 3:5  Moses was faithful in all God'sLit. his household as a servant who was to testify to what would be said later,
Hebr ISV 3:6  but Christ was faithfulThe Gk. lacks was faithful as the Son in charge of God'sLit. his household, and we are his household if we hold on to our courage and the hope that we boast about.Lit. the boast of our hope
Hebr ISV 3:7  A Rest for the People of GodTherefore, as the Holy Spirit says, “Today, if you hear his voice,
Hebr ISV 3:8  do not harden your heartsas they did when they provoked meduring the time of testing in the wilderness.
Hebr ISV 3:9  There your ancestors tested me,even though they had seen my works
Hebr ISV 3:10  for forty years. That is why I was indignant with that generation and said,‘They are always going astray in their hearts,and they have not known my ways.’
Hebr ISV 3:11  So in my anger I swore a solemn oaththat they would never enter my rest.”Ps 95:7-11
Hebr ISV 3:12  See to it, my brothers, that no evil, unbelieving heart is found in any of you, as shown by your turning away from the living God.
Hebr ISV 3:13  Instead, continue to encourage one another every day, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
Hebr ISV 3:14  For we are Christ's partners only if we hold on to our original confidence to the end.Other mss. lack to the end
Hebr ISV 3:15  As it is said, “Today, if you hear his voice,do not harden your hearts as they didwhen they provoked me.”Ps 95:7-8
Hebr ISV 3:16  Now who heard him and provoked him? Was it not all those who came out of Egypt ledThe Gk. lacks led by Moses?
Hebr ISV 3:17  And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned and whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
Hebr ISV 3:18  And to whom did he swear that they would never enter his rest, if not to those who disobeyed him?
Hebr ISV 3:19  So we see that they were unable to enter because of their unbelief.
