Hebrews 3:5 - John Wesley's Notes

Hebrews 3:5

3 For this One has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as ^aHe who built the house has more honor than the house.

4 For every house is built by someone, but ^aHe who built all things is God.

5 ^aAnd Moses indeed was faithful in all His house as ^ba servant, ^cfor a testimony of those things which would be spoken afterward,

6 but Christ as ^aa Son over His own house, ^bwhose house we are ^cif we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope¹ firm to the end.

Be Faithful

7 Therefore, as ^athe Holy Spirit says:
^b“Today, if you will hear His voice,

8 Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,
In the day of trial in the wilderness,

9 Where your fathers tested Me, tried Me,
And saw My works forty years.

10 Therefore I was angry with that generation,
And said, ‘They always go astray in their heart,
And they have not known My ways.’

11 So I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ”

12 Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God;

13 but¹ exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
