Hebrews 3
1 Hence, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider* Jesus Christ, the Apostle and High-Priest of our confession; 2 who was faithful to the one who made* him such, as Moses also was in his whole house. {Num 12:7} 3 For* he has been deemed worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as the one who constructed the house has more honor than the house. 4 For* every house is constructed by someone, but the one who constructed all things is God. 5 And Moses indeed was faithful in his whole house as a bondservant *for a testimony of the things which will be spoken later; 6 but Christ was faithful as a son, over his house; whose house we are, if indeed* we hold-onto our boldness and the boasting of our hope steadfast till the end.
7 Hence, as the Holy Spirit says, 'Today if you* hear his voice, 8 do not harden your* hearts, as in the rebellion, according to the day of the testing in the wilderness, 9 where your* fathers tested me, they proved me , and then saw my works forty years. 10 Hence I was displeased with that generation and said, They themselves are habitually misled in their heart s, but they did not know my ways. 11 As I swore in my wrath, they will not be entering into my rest. ' {Num 14:22, Psa 95:7-11} 12 Beware* brethren, lest there will be an evil heart of unbelief in anyone of you*, in withdrawing away from the living God. 13 But encourage* one another every day, until what is called today; in order that not anyone of you* may be hardened by the deception of sin. 14 For* we have become companions of the Christ, if indeed* we hold-onto the beginning of our firmness steadfast till the end; 15 while* it was said, 'If you* hear his voice today, do not harden your* hearts, as in the rebellion. ' {Num 14:29, Psa 95:7-11} 16 For* some who had heard it rebelled. But was it not all those who came out of Egypt through Moses? 17 And with whom was he displeased for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness? {Num 14:35} 18 Now to whom had he sworn that they will not be entering into his rest, except to those who were disobedient? 19 And we see that they were not able to enter because of unbelief.
