Hebrews 3:14 ESV

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 3:1-19

Jesus Christ, Lord of the Household of Gods(b) Christ is superior also to Moses; for He is Son over the house of God, whereas Moses was only a servant in it.1. Wherefore] A new section begins here, in which argument and exhortation are blended. The connexion with the preceding is not quite plain. It may lie in the fact that Christ has been described (Hebrews 2:10) as a Leader of salvation, conducting God’s children to glory, suggesting a similar function performed by Moses, the Leader of God’s... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 3:14

(14) For.—Take heed (Hebrews 3:12) lest there be anything that may lead astray, for we have become partakers of the Christ if (and only if) we hold the beginning of our confidence firm unto the end. In Hebrews 3:6, since Israel had been spoken of as God’s house, the Christian hope finds expression in “whose house are we,” Here the comparison with Israel journeying to the land of promise suggests another figure, and all blessing is summed up in becoming “partakers of the Christ,” foretold and... read more

Revelation in a Son Hebrews 3:1 The text of the Epistle to the Hebrews will be found in the first verse of the third chapter, 'Consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, even Jesus'. Like all Christian teaching, it finds its centre in the historic Personality and Life, which is the constant element because it is the Divine Fact. I. It is of the utmost importance to make clear to ourselves the fact that the work of Christ is essentially a unity, that He is not at one time... read more

CHAPTER III.FUNDAMENTAL ONENESS OF THE DISPENSATIONS.Hebrews 3:1 - Hebrews 4:13 (R.V.)."Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High-priest of our confession, even Jesus; who was faithful to Him that appointed Him as also was Moses in all his house. For He hath been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by so much as he that built the house hath more honour than the house. For every house is builded by some one; but He that built all things is God.... read more

lete_me Hebrews 3:13-197. THE JUDGMENT TO COMEMalachi 3:13; Hebrews 3:13-19; Hebrews 4:1-2This is another charge to the doubters among the pious remnant of Israel, who, seeing the success of the wicked, said it is vain to serve God. Deuteronomy was their Canon, and Deuteronomy said that if men sinned they decayed, if they were righteous they prospered. How different were the facts of experience! The evil men succeeded: the good won no gain by their goodness, nor did their mourning for the sins... read more

CHAPTER 3 1. As Son over the house of God, greater than Moses (Hebrews 3:1-6 ) 2. The danger of unbelief (Hebrews 3:7-13 ) 3. The need of faith (Hebrews 3:14-19 ) Hebrews 3:1-6 He now addresses believing Hebrews as “holy brethren and partakers of the heavenly calling,” and exhorts them to consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus.” Hebrews address each other as “brethren” (Acts 2:29 ; Acts 7:2 ; Acts 22:1 ). Believing Hebrews are here addressed by the Spirit of... read more

3:14 {8} For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the {k} beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;(8) Now he considers these words, "If you hear his voice" showing that they are spoken and meant of the hearing of faith, opposite which he places hardening through unbelief.(k) That beginning of trust and confidence: in the speech of the Hebrews, he calls "beginning" that which is chiefest. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 3:1-19

"Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling." Let us keep in mind that this is addressed to Jewish believers. How great a contrast to that which their own religion had taught them! Earthly hopes now they must leave behind, and as "holy brethren," set apart by virtue of identification with the blessed Person of the Lord Jesus, were to recognize themselves as partakers of the heavenly calling. Israel in rejecting their Messiah had forfeited all title to their longedfor earthly... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Hebrews 3:1-19

COMPARED WITH MOSES AND JOSHUA The superiority of Christ to Moses is shown in chapter 3, the comparison in which case runs in two parallel lines of two members each: 1. Moses a servant over God’s house (Hebrews 3:5 ). 2. Christ a Son over His own house (Hebrews 3:6 ). That is an interesting phrase, “Whose house are we” (Hebrews 3:6 ), suggesting a plan for a sermon. In what sense are believers Christ’s house? He built them: “without him was not anything made that was made.” He bought them:... read more

(10) Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do always err in their heart; and they have not known my ways. (11) So I swore in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
