My friend Fred grew up as a pastor’s son – one of several children born into a family with a limited income. Since he was interested in music, he purchased a beat-up old trombone at a pawn shop and taught himself to play it. He reached a level of accomplishment that prompted an invitation for him to play a special number at church. Afterwards, a ma...
Few people compare favorably with Moses. How many men have been a “basket-case,” put out to die in a pitch-covered basket, set afloat in the Nile River? How many have been rescued by Pharaoh’s daughter, and then raised as the son of the most powerful ruler on earth? How many have been called to confront Pharaoh, years later, as the result of a conv...
Moses even appears in the New Testament at the transfiguration of our Lord.6He was especially popular with the Jews of Jesus’ day, especially among the religious leaders, who loved and took advantage of his authority: Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples, 2 “The experts in the law and the Pharisees sit on Moses’ seat” (Matthew 23:1-2)...

We are of his house, if in fact we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope we take pride in (3:6b, emphasis mine). So the author has shown us that the Lord Jesus Christ is vastly superior to Moses, as great a man as he was. Moses was part of God’s “house,” and he was faithful. And now we are told that we, likewise, are of God’s house, “if we hol...
If Moss is worthy of glory as a servant, how much more worthy is Christ – the One who built the house? Brett Scott: Hebrews 3:1–6 compares Jesus with Moses in order to lay a foundation for the exhortation that follows in 3:7–4:11. The comparison points up three important truths.
1. How is Jesus superior to Moses? a. Not in faithfulness, but in person and service b. Moses was a servant in the house of God; Jesus is the builder of the house, and serves as the Son over the house! Indeed, Moses points us forward to Jesus (cf. Deu 18:15-19); for one to forsake Jesus in an attempt to go back to Moses alone is to frustrate ...

Hebrews 3:6 draws an explicit contrast between Jesus and Moses. Moses was a servant. He was a faithful servant, but still just a servant. Jesus, however, is the Son. Jesus is not just a servant in the household; he is the One who inherits the house and functions as its Lord.
