V. 3.— For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honor than the house. The Apostle, in contrasting the old and new dispensations, while he admits the glory of the old, observes that it had no glory in comparison of the new, 2 Corinthians 3:10; and here he illustrates the inferiority of Moses, as constituting a part of that house in the government of which he celebrates his faithfulness. Now a house may be very glorious, but it is evident that the builder has more honor than the house. It owes its magnificence to his skill.
