And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory.

Hebrews 3:1-6
Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge as our apostle and high priest. He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was faithful in all God’s house. Jesus has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself. For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything. Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house,” bearing witness to what would be spoken by God in the future. But Christ is faithful as the Son over God’s house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory.
Moses made Israel into a nation. He led them out of slavery in Egypt and through the desert. He gave them God's law and their forms of worship. No one was more revered by the Jews, and rightly so. But he could never be more than God's faithful servant. Jesus is God's son.
Why?
Jesus like Moses but greater than Moses, as his faithful and his builder position.
We are the house of the Lord if we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory. How great this position God gives us through Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ is our apostle and high priest, and he is higher than Moses.
We are brothers and sisters sharing in the heavenly calling for Jesus.

第二個超越是超越摩西。同蒙被召,同期進來,同期考入,
How?某種連結。神看待他們是聖潔寶貴的。
摩西以僕人身份進入。基督以兒子的身份進來。基督的身份超越摩西。神是信實的,也就是神為人忠信。神照顧帶領我們好像僕人待主人一樣。我們這是何等的不配,神的家人才有這福分。
摩西知道自己不能進迦南,仍忠心完成使命,耶穌同樣忠心完成使命。
How? 
Jesus is the Lord, son of God, we have this grace for Jesus has done for us.
