The Letter to the Hebrews, Chapter 3 {3:1} Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Emissary and High Priest of our confession, Yeshua; {3:2} who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also was Moses in all his house. {3:3} For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who built the house has more honor than the house. {3:4} For every house is built by someone; but he who built all things is God. {3:5} Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken, {3:6} but Messiah is faithful as a Son over his house; whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end. {3:7} Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, "Today if you will hear his voice, {3:8} don't harden your hearts, as in the rebellion, like as in the day of the trial in the wilderness, {3:9} where your fathers tested me by proving me, and saw my works for forty years. {3:10} Therefore I was displeased with that generation, and said, 'They always err in their heart, but they didn't know my ways;' {3:11} as I swore in my wrath, 'They will not enter into my rest.'"[1]
{3:12} Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God; {3:13} but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called "today;" lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. {3:14} For we have become partakers of Messiah, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm to the end: {3:15} while it is said, "Today if you will hear his voice, don't harden your hearts, as in the rebellion."[2] {3:16} For who, when they heard, rebelled? No, didn't all those who came out of Egypt by Moses? {3:17} With whom was he displeased forty years? Wasn't it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? {3:18} To whom did he swear that they wouldn't enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient? {3:19} We see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief. ________________________________________________________________________ Footnotes: [1] {3:11} Psalm 95:7-11 [2] {3:15} Psalm 95:7-8 ________________________________________________________________________ The World English Bible: Messianic Edition is in the Public Domain.
