Charles Ellicott Commentary Hebrews 3:4

"For every house is builded by some one; but he that built all things is God." — Hebrews 3:4 (ASV)

For every house is built by some man.—Rather, by some one: the thought of the house leads at once to the thought of its builder. The meaning of the several parts of this verse is very simple, but it is not easy to follow the reasoning with certainty.

The second clause seems to be a condensed expression of this thought: “But He who built this house is He who built all things, God.” Moses possesses lesser glory than the Apostle of our confession, as the house stands below its maker in honor. For this house, like every other, has its maker—it is He who made all things, even God.
