The Letter to the Hebrews, Chapter 2
{2:1} Therefore we ought to pay greater attention to the things that
were heard, lest perhaps we drift away. {2:2} For if the word spoken
through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and
disobedience received a just recompense; {2:3} how will we escape, if
we neglect so great a salvation -- which at the first having been
spoken through the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard; {2:4}
God also bearing witness with them, both by signs and wonders, and by
various works of power, and by gifts of the [1>]Ruach HaKodesh[<1],
according to his own will? {2:5} For he didn't subject the world to
come, whereof we speak, to angels. {2:6} But one has somewhere
testified, saying,
"What is man, that you think of him?
Or the son of man, that you care for him?
{2:7} You made him a little lower than the angels;
You crowned him with glory and honor.
{2:8} You have put all things in subjection under his feet."
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. {2:9} But we see him who has been made a little lower than the
angels, Yeshua, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory
and honor, that by the grace of God he should taste of death for
everyone. {2:10} For it became him, for whom are all things, and
through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make
the author of their salvation perfect through sufferings. {2:11} 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, {2:12} saying,
"I will declare your name to my brothers,
In the midst of the congregation will I sing your praise."
{2:13} Again, "I will put my trust in him." Again, "Behold, here am
I and the children whom God has given me." {2:14} 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, {2:15} and
might deliver all of them who through fear of death were all their
lifetime subject to bondage. {2:16} For most assuredly, not to angels
does he give help, but he gives help to the seed of Avraham. {2:17}
Therefore he was obligated in all things to be made like his brothers,
that he might become a merciful and faithful [2>]Kohen Gadol[<2] in
things pertaining to God, to make atonement for the sins of the
people. {2:18} For in that he himself has suffered being tempted, he
is able to help those who are tempted.
