Description: In this broadcast message sponsored by the Psalm 127 Fund and presented by For Zion's Sake, hosts Shelley and June Volk delve into the foundational message of Hebrews 3:1–6. The discussion emphasizes the central command to "consider"—to observe with deep spiritual thought and discernment rather than mere emotion—Jesus as the Apostle and High Priest of our confession. Comparing the roles of Moses as a faithful servant in God's house and Jesus as the divine Builder and Son over the house, this study calls believers to embrace their identity as "holy brethren" and live with a heavenly minded focus on earth.

Key Takeaways:


Deep Contemplation ("Consider"): To "consider" Jesus (Hebrews 3:1) means to receive with deep thought, perceive, and apprehend spiritually, rather than relying strictly on sensory or emotional perception.


Jesus vs. Moses: Moses served faithfully as a servant within the house for a testimony of things to come (Hebrews 3:5), but Jesus is worthy of greater honor as the divine Builder of all things and the Son over His own house (Hebrews 3:3–6).


The Unique Office of High Priest and Apostle: Unlike earthly kings who could not hold the priesthood, Jesus fulfills both functions—sent directly by God as an Apostle and acting as High Priest after the higher order of Melchizedek.


Identity as Holy Brethren: Believers are elevated through Christ’s resurrection into a heavenly calling, recognized not just as earthbound individuals, but as transformed "holy brethren" whose ultimate citizenship is in heaven.

Featured Bible Passages:


Hebrews 3:1–6 – Calling believers to consider Jesus, comparing His supremacy as Son and Builder over Moses’ role as a faithful servant.


Hebrews 2:11–18 – Establishing Jesus as the Son of Man who is not ashamed to call believers His brethren.


Numbers 6:24–26 – The Priestly Blessing ("The Lord bless thee and keep thee...") recited at the close of the broadcast.
