Hebrews Chapter 3 (ESV)
undefined
Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession,
undefined
who was faithful to him who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in all God's house.
undefined
For Jesus has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses — as much more glory as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself.
undefined
(For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.)
undefined
Now Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later,
undefined
but Christ is faithful over God's house as a son. And we are his house, if indeed we hold fast our confidence and our boasting in our hope.
undefined
Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, “Today, if you hear his voice,
undefined
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness,
undefined
where your fathers put me to the test and saw my works for forty years.
undefined
Therefore I was provoked with that generation, and said, ‘They always go astray in their heart; they have not known my ways.’
undefined
As I swore in my wrath, ‘They shall not enter my rest.’”
undefined
Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God.
undefined
But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
undefined
For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end.
undefined
As it is said, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
undefined
For who were those who heard and yet rebelled? Was it not all those who left Egypt led by Moses?
undefined
And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
undefined
And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient?
undefined
So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.
