Hebrews 1:5

Context
The Son Is Superior to Angels

Hebrews 2:8-9

Context

2:8 You put all things under his control. 6 

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, 7  2:9 but we see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, 8  now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, 9  so that by God’s grace he would experience 10  death on behalf of everyone.

Hebrews 2:14

2:14 Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, he likewise shared in 11  their humanity, 12  so that through death he could destroy 13  the one who holds the power of death (that is, the devil),

Hebrews 2:17

Context
2:17 Therefore he had 14  to be made like his brothers and sisters 15  in every respect, so that he could become a merciful and faithful high priest in things relating to God, to make atonement 16  for the sins of the people.

Hebrews 7:3

7:3 Without father, without mother, without genealogy, he has neither beginning of days nor end of life but is like the son of God, and he remains a priest for all time.

Hebrews 7:27

7:27 He has no need to do every day what those priests do, to offer sacrifices first for their own sins and then for the sins of the people, since he did this in offering himself once for all.

Hebrews 9:12

Context
9:12 and he entered once for all into the most holy place not by the blood of goats and calves but by his own blood, and so he himself secured 17  eternal redemption.

Hebrews 9:26

Context
9:26 for then he would have had to suffer again and again since the foundation of the world. But now he has appeared once for all at the consummation of the ages to put away sin by his sacrifice.

1 tn Grk “he”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

2 tn Grk “I have begotten you.”

sn A quotation from Ps 2:7.

3 tn Grk “And again,” quoting another OT passage.

4 tn The words “he says” are not in the Greek text but are supplied to make a complete English sentence. In the Greek text this is a continuation of the previous sentence, but English does not normally employ such long and complex sentences.

5 tn Grk “I will be a father to him and he will be a son to me.”

sn A quotation from 2 Sam 7:14 (cf. 1 Chr 17:13).

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

sn A quotation from Ps 8:4-6.

7 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.

8 tn Or “who was made a little lower than the angels.”

9 tn Grk “because of the suffering of death.”

10 tn Grk “would taste.” Here the Greek verb does not mean “sample a small amount” (as a typical English reader might infer from the word “taste”), but “experience something cognitively or emotionally; come to know something” (cf. BDAG 195 s.v. γεύομαι 2).

11 tn Or “partook of” (this is a different word than the one in v. 14a).

12 tn Grk “the same.”

13 tn Or “break the power of,” “reduce to nothing.”

14 tn Or “he was obligated.”

15 tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 2:11.

16 tn Or “propitiation.”

17 tn This verb occurs in the Greek middle voice, which here intensifies the role of the subject, Christ, in accomplishing the action: “he alone secured”; “he and no other secured.”
