Hebrews 3:1-6

Expanded Bible

Jesus Is Greater than Moses

3 ·So all of you [^LTherefore] holy brothers and sisters, who ·were called by God [are partners/partakers in a heavenly calling], ·think about [consider; focus on] Jesus, who ·was sent to us [or is our apostle; ^Ca commissioned messenger] and is the high priest ·of our faith [or whom we acknowledge/confess; ^Lof our confession]. ² Jesus was faithful to God who appointed him just as Moses was faithful in God’s ·family [household; house]. ³ Jesus ·has [deserves; is worthy of] more honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself. ⁴ [^LFor] Every house is built by someone, but the builder of everything is God himself. ⁵ Moses was faithful in ·God’s family [^Lall of God’s house; Num. 12:7] as a servant, and he ·told [testified to] what God would say in the future. ⁶ But Christ is faithful as a Son over God’s house. And we are God’s house if we ·confidently maintain our hope [or maintain our courage and confident hope].
