Hebrews 2
2
The Great Salvation
1#Pr 3:21Therefore we should be more attentive to what we have heard, lest we drift away. 2#Ac 7:53; Heb 10:28; 10:35For if the word spoken by angels was true, and every sin and disobedience received a just recompense, 3#Lk 1:2; Heb 1:2how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation, which was first declared by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him? 4#Eph 1:5God also bore them witness with signs and wonders and diverse miracles and with gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to His own will.
The Pioneer of Salvation
5#Heb 6:5For it was not to the angels that He has subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking. 6#Heb 4:4But someone in a certain place testified, saying:
“What is man that You are mindful of him,
or the son of man that You care for him?
7You made him a little lower than the angels;
You crowned him with glory and honor,
and set him over the works of Your hands.
8#1Co 15:27 You have put all things in subjection under his feet.”
For in subjecting all things under him, He left nothing that is not subjected to him. Yet now we do not see all things subject to him. 9#Jn 3:16; Ac 2:33But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels to suffer death, crowned with glory and honor, so that He, by the grace of God, should experience death for everyone.
10#Lk 24:26; Ro 11:36; Lk 24:46For it was fitting for Him, for whom and by whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the Author of their salvation perfect through suffering. 11#Heb 10:10; Mt 25:40For both He who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all of One. For this reason He is not ashamed to call them brothers, 12#Ps 22:22saying:
“I will declare Your name to My brothers;
in the midst of the congregation I will sing praise to You.”#Ps 22:22.
13#Ps 18:2; Isa 8:17–18And again:
“I will put My trust in Him.”#Isa 12:2.
And again:
“Here am I and the children whom God has given Me.”#Isa 8:18.
14#Jn 1:14; 2Ti 1:10; Ge 3:15So then, as the children share in flesh and blood, He likewise took part in these, so that through death He might destroy him who has the power of death, that is, the devil, 15#Ro 8:15; 2Ti 1:7and deliver those who through fear of death were throughout their lives subject to bondage. 16For surely He does not help the angels, but He helps the seed of Abraham. 17#Da 9:24; Heb 2:14Therefore, in all things it was necessary for Him to be made like His brothers, so that He might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in the things pertaining to God, to make atonement for the sins of the people. 18For since He Himself suffered while being tempted, He is able to help those who are being tempted.
