Hebrews 3:5

OLBGrk;

The gospel Minister doth not only excel Moses as much as a builder doth his work, but as a son doth a servant, proved in this and Hebrews 3:6. And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant; your great legal prophet, in whom many of you Hebrews trust, 1 Thessalonians 5:45, did truly and fully reveal and do what God charged him, in ministering his will to his church, Exodus 40:16; he did not diminish from, nor add the least to, God's charge, yerapwn, Numbers 12:7. As a minister, Moses was as faithful as any God had; not a slave or a drudge, but a free, willing, ingenuous servant, most entirely and obsequiously addicting himself in that honourable place and office of great trust, to which God called him; a stewardly servant, a prophet and a prince, inspecting and ordering all according to God's will; in all Christ's house and family, his church, he is but a servant. For a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after: his faithfulness was evident in his bearing true witness to the church, of all God made known to him, that they might not be uncertain of the truth; even all that truth, which was more fully and clearly to be spoken by the prophets after him, and by Christ and his apostles; but which the Spirit shall speak to them further concerning Christ and his church in this Epistle, 1 Thessalonians 5:46. In which is insinuated, that Christ was the truth himself witnessed to by Moses, who was a witness of an inferior degree, though in his work faithful, and conformed unto Christ.
