| 5 | And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after; | Now Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house, testifying to what would be spoken later. | And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken; |
In context
AI-assisted, sourcedHebrews 3:1-6Christ above Moses
About Hebrews 3The readers are to "consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus," who is "counted worthy of more glory than Moses": Moses was faithful as a servant in God's house, "But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast." The writer quotes the warning of the Psalm, "To day if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation." Those who sinned, "whose carcases fell in the wilderness," "could not enter in because of unbelief," so "exhort one another daily, while it is called To day."
