Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, partners in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession,
who was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was faithful in all God’s house.
Yet Jesus is counted worthy of more glory than Moses—just as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself.
For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.
Now Moses was faithful in all God’s house as a servant, to testify to the things that would be spoken later,
but Christ is faithful as a Son over God’s house, and we are his house if we hold firm the confidence and the pride that our hope gives us.
Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, “Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, as on the day of testing in the wilderness,
where your ancestors tested me and tried me, though for forty years they saw my works.
Therefore I was angry with that generation, and I said, ‘They always go astray in their hearts, and they have not known my ways.’
As in my anger I swore, ‘They shall not enter my rest.’”
Take care, brothers and sisters, that none of you may have an evil, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.
But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “today,” so that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
For we have become partners of Christ, if only we hold our first confidence firm to the end,
as it is said, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
Now who were they who heard and yet rebelled? Was it not all those who left Egypt under the leadership of Moses?
And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, if not to those who were disobedient?
So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.
