耶穌比摩西更配得榮耀

同蒙天召的聖潔弟兄啊,你們應當思想我們所認為使者、為大祭司的耶穌。 他為那設立他的盡忠,如同摩西在神的全家盡忠一樣。 他比摩西算是更配多得榮耀,好像建造房屋的比房屋更尊榮。 因為房屋都必有人建造,但建造萬物的就是神。 摩西為僕人,在神的全家誠然盡忠,為要證明將來必傳說的事; 但基督為兒子,治理神的家。我們若將可誇的盼望和膽量堅持到底,便是他的家了。

當警戒硬心

聖靈有話說:「你們今日若聽他的話, 就不可硬著心,像在曠野惹他發怒、試探他的時候一樣。 在那裡,你們的祖宗試我探我,並且觀看我的作為有四十年之久。 10 所以,我厭煩那世代的人,說:『他們心裡常常迷糊,竟不曉得我的作為。』 11 我就在怒中起誓說:『他們斷不可進入我的安息。』」 12 弟兄們,你們要謹慎,免得你們中間或有人存著不信的惡心,把永生神離棄了。 13 總要趁著還有今日,天天彼此相勸,免得你們中間有人被罪迷惑,心裡就剛硬了。 14 我們若將起初確實的信心堅持到底,就在基督裡有份了。 15 經上說:「你們今日若聽他的話,就不可硬著心,像惹他發怒的日子一樣。」

不信之人不能享受安息

16 那時聽見他話惹他發怒的是誰呢?豈不是跟著摩西埃及出來的眾人嗎? 17 神四十年之久又厭煩誰呢?豈不是那些犯罪屍首倒在曠野的人嗎? 18 又向誰起誓,不容他們進入他的安息呢?豈不是向那些不信從的人嗎? 19 這樣看來,他們不能進入安息是因為不信的緣故了。

The Son Was Faithful

Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus, who was faithful to Him who appointed Him, as (A)Moses also was faithful in all His house. For this One has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as (B)He who built the house has more honor than the house. For every house is built by someone, but (C)He who built all things is God. (D)And Moses indeed was faithful in all His house as (E)a servant, (F)for a testimony of those things which would be spoken afterward, but Christ as (G)a Son over His own house, (H)whose house we are (I)if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope [a]firm to the end.

Be Faithful(J)

Therefore, as (K)the Holy Spirit says:

(L)“Today, if you will hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,
In the day of trial in the wilderness,
Where your fathers tested Me, tried Me,
And saw My works forty years.
10 Therefore I was angry with that generation,
And said, ‘They always go astray in their heart,
And they have not known My ways.’
11 So I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ”

12 Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; 13 but [b]exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end, 15 while it is said:

(M)“Today, if you will hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”

Failure of the Wilderness Wanderers

16 (N)For who, having heard, rebelled? Indeed, was it not all who came out of Egypt, led by Moses? 17 Now with whom was He angry forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, (O)whose corpses fell in the wilderness? 18 And (P)to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to those who did not obey? 19 So we see that they could not enter in because of (Q)unbelief.

The Superiority of Jesus to Moses

Therefore, holy brothers, sharers in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession, who was faithful to the one who appointed him, as Moses also was in his household.[a] For this one is considered worthy of greater glory than Moses, inasmuch as the one who builds it has greater honor than the house. For every house is built by someone, but the one who built all things is God. And Moses was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony to the things that would be spoken, but Christ was faithful[b] as a son over his house, whose house we are, if[c] we hold fast to our confidence and the hope we can be proud of.

A Serious Warning Against Unbelief

Therefore, just as the Holy Spirit says,

“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,
    in the day of testing in the wilderness,
where your fathers tested me by trial
    and saw my works 10 for forty years.
Therefore I was angry with this generation,
    and I said, ‘They always go astray in their heart,
and they do not know my ways.’
11     As I swore in my anger,
They will never enter[d] into my rest.’”[e]

12 Watch out, brothers, lest there be in some of you an evil, unbelieving heart, with the result that you fall away[f] from the living God. 13 But encourage one another day by day[g], as long as it is called “today,” so that none of you become hardened[h] by the deception of sin. 14 For we have become partners of Christ, if indeed we hold fast the beginning of our commitment steadfast until the end, 15 while it is said[i],

“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”[j]

16 For who, when they[k] heard it, were disobedient? Surely it was not all who went out from Egypt through Moses? 17 And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the wilderness? 18 And to whom did he swear they would not enter into his rest, except those who were disobedient? 19 And so we see that they were not able to enter because of unbelief.
