Hebrews

Jesus vs. Moses

For first-century Jews, Moses was everything.

For first-century Jews, Moses was the ultimate authority.

For first-century Jews, Moses was the national hero.

Moses matters, but Jesus matters even more.

Moses is the tour guide.
He faithfully led God’s people and pointed to something greater.

Jesus is the architect.
He created everything and is the owner of God’s house.

What’s your Moses?
