Hebrews 2:5-8
5) For he didn‘t subject the world to come, whereof we speak, to angels.
6) But one has somewhere testified, saying, "What is man, that you think of him? Or the son of man, that you care for him?
7) You made him a little lower than the angels; You crowned him with glory and honor.
8) You have put all things in subjection under his feet." For in that he subjected all things to him, he left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we don‘t see all things subjected to him, yet.
Hebrews 3:1-19
1) Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus;
2) who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also was Moses in all his house.
3) For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by so much as he who built the house has more honor than the house.
4) For every house is built by someone; but he who built all things is God.
5) Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken,
6) but Christ as a Son, over his house; whose house are we, if we hold fast our boldness and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.
7) Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, "Today if you will hear his voice,
8) Don‘t harden your hearts, as in the provocation, Like as in the day of the trial in the wilderness,
9) Where your fathers tested me by proving me, And saw my works for forty years.
10) Therefore I was displeased with that generation, And said, ‘They always err in their heart, But they didn‘t know my ways;‘
11) As I swore in my wrath, ‘They will not enter into my rest.‘"
12) Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there will be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God;
13) but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called "today;" lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
14) For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm to the end:
15) while it is said, "Today if you will hear his voice, Don‘t harden your hearts, as in the provocation."
16) For who, when they heard, did provoke? No, didn‘t all those who came out of Egypt by Moses?
17) With whom was he displeased forty years? was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
18) To whom did he swear that they should not enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient?
19) We see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief.
Hebrews 4:1-13
1) Let us fear therefore, lest perhaps a promise being left of entering into his rest, anyone of you should seem to have come short of it.
2) For indeed we have had good news preached to us, even as also they, but the word of hearing did not profit them, because it was not mixed with faith by those who heard.
3) For we who have believed do enter into that rest, even as he has said, "As I swore in my wrath, They will not enter into my rest;" although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4) For he has said somewhere about the seventh day like this, "God rested on the seventh day from all his works;"
5) and in this place again, "They will not enter into my rest."
6) Seeing therefore it remains that some should enter therein, and they to whom the good news were before preached failed to enter in because of disobedience,
7) he again defines a certain day, today, saying through David so long a time afterward (just as has been said), "Today if you will hear his voice, Don‘t harden your hearts."
8) For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have spoken afterward of another day.
9) There remains therefore a Sabbath rest for the people of God.
10) For he who has entered into his rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from his.
11) Let us therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, that no man fall after the same example of disobedience.
12) For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart.
13) There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
Colossians 1:17-18
17) He is before all things, and in him all things are held together.
18) He is the head of the body, the assembly, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
