📖 Hebrews introduction

Read the chapter

1Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus; ✦ 2Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house. ✦ 3For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honour than the house. ✦ 4For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God. ✦ 5And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after; ✦ 6But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end. ✦ 7Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice, ✦ 8Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: ✦ 9When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. ✦ 10Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways. ✦ 11So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.) ✦ 12Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. ✦ 13But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. ✦ 14For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; ✦ 15While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. ✦ 16For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses. ✦ 17But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness? ✦ 18And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not? ✦ 19So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief. ✦

Christ at the center

Hebrews is sustained worship of Christ: better than angels, Moses, and the priests; the great High Priest after Melchizedek who by one sacrifice perfects forever those he saves.

How Hebrews 3 points to him is part of the one story that runs through all Scripture — meet Jesus at the heart of the web, or follow a trail that traces him from Genesis to Revelation.
