1. So, my brothers and sisters, those chosen by God to be his holy people, think about Jesus. He is the one we believe God sent to save us and to be our high priest.
2. God made him our high priest, and he was faithful to God just as Moses was. He did everything God wanted him to do in God’s house.
3. When someone builds a house, people will honor the builder more than the house. It is the same with Jesus. He should have more honor than Moses.
4. Every house is built by someone, but God built everything.
5. Moses was faithful as a servant in God’s whole house. He told people what God would say in the future.
6. But Christ is faithful in ruling God’s house as the Son. And we are God’s house, if we remain confident of the great hope we are glad to say we have.
7. So it is just as the Holy Spirit says: “If you hear God’s voice today,
8. don’t be stubborn as you were in the past, when you turned against God. That was the day you tested God in the desert.
9. For 40 years in the desert, your people saw what I did. But they tested me and my patience.
10. So I was angry with them. I said, ‘Their thoughts are always wrong. They have never understood my ways.’
