Son Of Man Is Better Than Angels
Hebrews 2:5-18: 5For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to
come, whereof we speak. 6But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is
man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him?
7Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory
and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands: 8Thou hast put all
things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him,
he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put
under him. 9But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for
the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of
God should taste death for every man. 10For it became him, for whom are all
things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make
the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings. 11For both he that
sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not
ashamed to call them brethren, 12Saying, I will declare thy name unto my
brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee. 13And again, I
will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath
given me. 14Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he
also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy
him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; 15And deliver them who
through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. 16For verily he
took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
17Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that
he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to
make reconciliation for the sins of the people. 18For in that he himself hath
suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.
