Heb 3:2–6

3:2–6 With reference to Num. 12:7, Moses and Christ are compared as to faithfulness and contrasted as to honor. Though privileged to speak to God face to face and to see His form (Num. 12:8), Moses was still only “a servant” in the house of God (v. 5). Christ, as agent of creation (1:2, 10), deserves honor as divine builder of all things and as Son “over God’s house” (v. 6).
