NET © Notes

tn Grk “who being…and sustaining.” Heb 1:1-4 form one skillfully composed sentence in Greek, but it must be broken into shorter segments to correspond to contemporary English usage, which does not allow for sentences of this length and complexity.

tn Grk “by the word of his power.”

sn An allusion to Ps 110:1, quoted often in Hebrews.
