[1] So all of you holy brothers and sisters, who were called by God, think about Jesus, who was sent to us and is the high priest of our faith. [2] Jesus was faithful to God as Moses was in God's family. [3] Jesus has more honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself. [4] Every house is built by someone, but the builder of everything is God himself. [5] Moses was faithful in God's family as a servant, and he told what God would say in the future. [6] But Christ is faithful as a Son over God's house. And we are God's house if we confidently maintain our hope. [7] So it is as the Holy Spirit says: "Today listen to what he says. [8] Do not be stubborn as in the past when you turned against God, when you tested God in the desert. [9] There your ancestors tried me and tested me and saw the things I did for forty years. [10] I was angry with them. I said, 'They are not loyal to me and have not understood my ways.' [11] I was angry and made a promise, 'They will never enter my rest.'" Psalm 95:7-11 [12] So brothers and sisters, be careful that none of you has an evil, unbelieving heart that will turn you away from the living God. [13] But encourage each other every day while it is "today." Help each other so none of you will become hardened because sin has tricked you. [14] We all share in Christ if we keep till the end the sure faith we had in the beginning. [15] This is what the Scripture says: "Today listen to what he says. Do not be stubborn as in the past when you turned against God." Psalm 95:7-8 [16] Who heard God's voice and was against him? It was all those people Moses led out of Egypt. [17] And with whom was God angry for forty years? He was angry with those who sinned, who died in the desert. [18] And to whom was God talking when he promised that they would never enter his rest? He was talking to those who did not obey him. [19] So we see they were not allowed to enter and have God's rest, because they did not believe.
