3 A man who builds a house receives more honour than the house itself. In the same way Jesus is worthy of much greater honour than Moses.
4 Every house, of course, is built by someone — and God is the one who has built all things.
5 Moses was faithful in God's house as a servant, and he spoke of the things that God would say in the future.
6 But Christ is faithful as the Son in charge of God's house. We are his house if we keep up our courage and our confidence in what we hope for.
7 So then, as the Holy Spirit says:“If you hear God's voice today,
8 do not be stubborn, as your ancestors were when they rebelled against God,as they were that day in the desertwhen they put him to the test.
9 There they put me to the test and tried me, says God,although they had seen what I did for forty years.
