Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Hebrews 3:1-19

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

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Hebrews 3:1-19

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

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

(7) Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, Today if ye will hear his voice, (8) Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: (9) When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. (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.)

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 3:7-13

7-13 Days of temptation are often days of provocation. But to provoke God, when he is letting us see that we entirely depend and live upon him, is a provocation indeed. The hardening of the heart is the spring of all other sins. The sins of others, especially of our relations, should be warnings to us. All sin, especially sin committed by God's professing, privileged people, not only provokes God, but it grieves him. God is loth to destroy any in, or for their sin; he waits long to be gracious... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Hebrews 3:1-99

Hebrews 3 THE FIRST CHAPTER has presented to us the Lord Jesus as the Apostle, that is, as the Sent One, who came forth from God to us, bringing us the Divine revelation. The second set Him before us as the High Priest, who has gone in from us to God, representing us and maintaining our cause in His presence. Now we are bidden to consider Him very thoroughly in both these characters. We are to set our minds to it as those who aim at discovering all that is involved. These Hebrews had taken up... read more
