Dual Panel1Therefore, holy brothers, sharers in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession,
2who was faithful to the one who appointed him, as Moses also [was] in all his household.
3For this one is considered worthy of greater glory than Moses, inasmuch as the one who builds it has greater honor than the house.
4For every house is built by someone, but the one who built all [things] [is] God.
5And Moses [was] faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony to the things that would be spoken,
6but Christ [was faithful] as a son over his house, whose house we are, if indeed we hold fast to our confidence and the hope we can be proud of.
7Therefore, just as the Holy Spirit says, "Today, if you hear his voice,
8do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of testing in the wilderness,
9where your fathers tested [me] by trial and saw my works
10[for] forty years. Therefore I was angry with this generation, and I said, ‘They always go astray in their heart, and they do not know my ways.’
11As I swore in my anger, ‘_They will never enter_ into my rest.’"
12Watch out, brothers, lest there be in some of you an evil, unbelieving heart, [with the result that you] fall away from the living God.
13But encourage one another _day by day_ , as long as it is called "today," so that _none of you become hardened_ by the deception of sin.
14For we have become partners of Christ, if indeed we hold fast the beginning of [our] commitment steadfast until the end,
15_while it is said_ , "Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion."
16For who, [when they] heard [it], were disobedient? Surely [it was] not all who went out from Egypt through Moses?
17And with whom was he angry [for] forty years? [Was it] not with those who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the wilderness?
18And to whom did he swear [they would] not enter into his rest, except those who were disobedient?
19And [so] we see that they were not able to enter because of unbelief.
