2:8 You put all things under his control.” 1 

For when he put all things under his control, he left nothing outside of his control. At present we do not yet see all things under his control, 2 

Hebrews 4:3

4:3 For we who have believed enter that rest, as he has said, “As I swore in my anger, ‘They will never enter my rest!’” 3  And yet God’s works 4  were accomplished from the foundation of the world.

Hebrews 4:15

4:15 For we do not have a high priest incapable of sympathizing with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in every way just as we are, yet without sin.

1 tn Grk “you subjected all things under his feet.”

sn A quotation from Ps 8:4-6.

2 sn The expression all things under his control occurs three times in 2:8. The latter two occurrences are not exactly identical to the Greek text of Ps 8:6 quoted at the beginning of the verse, but have been adapted by the writer of Hebrews to fit his argument.

3 sn A quotation from Ps 95:11.

4 tn Grk “although the works,” continuing the previous reference to God. The referent (God) is specified in the translation for clarity.
