think of him? Or the son of man, that you care for him?
002:007 You made him a little lower than the angels. You crowned him
with glory and honor.{TR adds "and set him over the works
of your hands"}
002:008 You have put all things in subjection under his feet."{Psalm
8:4-6} For in that he subjected all things to him, he left
nothing that is not subject to him. But now we don't see
all things subjected to him, yet.
002:009 But we see him who has been made a little lower than
the angels, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned
with glory and honor, that by the grace of God he should taste
of death for everyone.
002:010 For it became him, for whom are all things, and through whom
are all things, in bringing many children to glory, to make
the author of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
002:011 For both he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified
are all from one, for which cause he is not ashamed to call
them brothers{The word for "brothers" here and where
context allows may also be correctly translated "brothers
and sisters" or "siblings."},
002:012 saying, "I will declare your name to my brothers. In the midst
of the congregation I will sing your praise."{Psalm 22:22}
002:013 Again, "I will put my trust in him."{Isaiah 8:17} Again, "Behold,
here I am with the children whom God has given me."{Isaiah 8:18}
002:014 Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood,
he also himself in like manner partook of the same, that through
death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death,
that is, the devil,
002:015 and might deliver all of them who through fear of death were
all their lifetime subject to bondage.
002:016 For most certainly, he doesn't give help to angels, but he gives
help to the seed of Abraham.
002:017 Therefore he was obligated in all things to be made like
his brothers, that he might become a merciful and faithful
high priest in things pertaining to God, to make atonement
for the sins of the people.
002:018 For in that he himself has suffered being tempted, he is able
to help those who are tempted.
003:001 Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling,
consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus;
003:002 who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also was Moses
in all his house.
003:003 For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses,
inasmuch as he who built the house has more honor than the house.
003:004 For every house is built by someone; but he who built all
things is God.
003:005 Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant,
