Jesus Greater Than Moses
1Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge as our apostle and high priest. 2He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was faithful in all God’s house. 3Jesus has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself. 4For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything. 5“Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house,”3:5 Num. 12:7 bearing witness to what would be spoken by God in the future. 6But Christ is faithful as the Son over God’s house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory.
Warning Against Unbelief
7So, as the Holy Spirit says:
“Today, if you hear his voice,
8do not harden your hearts
as you did in the rebellion,
during the time of testing in the wilderness,
9where your ancestors tested and tried me,
though for forty years they saw what I did.
10That is why I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray,
and they have not known my ways.’
11So I declared on oath in my anger,
‘They shall never enter my rest.’ ”3:11 Psalm 95:7-11
12See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God. 13But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness. 14We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original conviction firmly to the very end. 15As has just been said:
“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts
as you did in the rebellion.”3:15 Psalm 95:7,8
16Who were they who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt? 17And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies perished in the wilderness? 18And to whom did God swear that they would never enter his rest if not to those who disobeyed? 19So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief.
耶稣超越摩西
1因此，同蒙天召的圣洁弟兄姊妹，你们应当仔细思想那位我们公认为特使和大祭司的耶稣。 2祂向委任祂的上帝尽忠，就好像摩西向上帝的全家尽忠一样。 3然而祂却比摩西配得更大的荣耀，就好像建造房子的人比房子更尊贵一样。 4因为房子都是人建造的，但建造万物的是上帝。 5摩西以仆人的身份向上帝的全家尽忠，3:5 民数记12:7。为将来要宣告的事做见证。 6但基督是以儿子的身份忠心治理上帝的家。我们若持定信念和引以为荣的盼望，就是祂的家了。
不可存刚硬的心
7因此，正如圣灵说：
“你们今日若听见祂的声音，
8不可心里顽固，
像从前在旷野试探祂、悖逆祂一样。
9你们的祖先虽然在那里观看我的作为四十年之久，
却仍然试我、探我。
10所以，我向那世代的人发怒，
说：‘他们心向歧途，
不认识我的道路。’
11因此我愤然起誓说，
‘他们绝不可进入我的安息。’3:11 诗篇95:7‑11。”
12弟兄姊妹，要谨慎，免得你们当中有人心存恶念，不肯相信，背弃了永活的上帝。 13趁着还有今日，要天天互相劝勉，免得有人被罪迷惑，心里变得刚硬。 14如果我们将起初的信念坚持到底，便在基督里有份了。
15圣经上说：
“你们今日若听见祂的声音，
不可心里顽固，像从前悖逆祂一样。”3:15 诗篇95:7、8。
16听见祂的声音却又悖逆祂的是谁呢？不就是摩西从埃及领出来的那些人吗？ 17四十年之久惹上帝发怒的是谁呢？不就是那些犯罪作恶并倒毙在旷野的人吗？ 18上帝起誓不准谁进入祂的安息呢？不就是那些不肯顺从的人吗？ 19可见，他们不能进入上帝的安息是因为不信的缘故。
