Context: Hebrews 3
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.

Commentary
Hebrews 3 is a powerful reminder of the importance of faith and obedience to God. The author begins by reminding us of the faithfulness of Moses, who was chosen by God to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. He then goes on to compare Moses to Jesus, the ultimate leader of God's people. He emphasizes that Jesus is greater than Moses, and that we should have faith in Him and obey His commands.
