he is counted worthy of more glory than Moses: Paul here shows why “he,” that is, Jesus, was worthy of more glory, or honor, than Moses was. Moses served as an attendant in a house, or congregation, that God built. (Ex 40:38; De 7:6) Jesus, however, was appointed over a house—the Christian congregation—that he himself built under God’s direction. (Mt 9:35; 16:18 and study note; Lu 6:13; Ac 2:1, 2, 33; Eph 2:20) Paul’s argument takes in an even more impressive fact: The Son already had a long record of building under his Father’s direction. Paul goes on to show that God “constructed all things.” (Heb 3:4 and study note) As God’s coworker, Jesus was unquestionably worthy of far more glory than Moses was.
