Hebrews 3:5

θεράπων (G2324) слуга, прислужник. Это слово обозначает личное служение с полной самоотдачей. Это добровольная служба, а также отношения между слугой и тем, кому служат. Подчеркивается также почетность и благородство занятия. В данном случае слово может быть взято из Септ., как переводевр. слова "раб": 1ףב, 'ebed (TDNT; EGT; Hughes; Riggenbach; N1DOTTE, 3:304-9; BBC; DLNT, 777-82).
λαληθησομένων fut. pass. part. от λαλέω (G2980) говорить. Это слово указывает, что положение Моисея послужило основой для последующего, более высокого откровения (Moffatt; Michel).
