The Epistle to the Hebrews

Berean Study Bible :: World English Bible Catholic

- Kapitel 2 -

1
We must pay closer attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away.
2
For if the message spoken by angels was binding, and every transgression and disobedience received its just punishment,
3
how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? This salvation was first announced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard Him,
4
and was affirmed by God through signs, wonders, various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to His will.

Jesus like His Brothers

5
For it is not to angels that He has subjected the world to come, about which we are speaking.
6
But somewhere it is testified in these words:What is man that You are mindful of him, or the son of man that You care for him?
7
You made him a little lower (a) than the angels; You crowned him with glory and honor (b)
8
and placed everything under his feet.”(c) When God subjected all things to him, He left nothing outside of his control. Yet at present we do not see everything subject to him.
9
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor because He suffered death, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.
10
In bringing many sons to glory, it was fitting for God, for whom and through whom all things exist, to make the author (d) of their salvation perfect through suffering.
11
For both the One who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers.
12
He says:I will proclaim Your name to My brothers; I will sing Your praises in the assembly.”(e)
13
And again:I will put My trust in Him.”(f) And once again:Here am I, and the children God has given Me.”(g)
14
Now since the children have flesh and blood, He too shared in their humanity, so that by His death He might destroy him who holds the power of death, that is, the devil,
15
and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death.
16
For surely it is not the angels He helps, but the descendants of Abraham.
17
For this reason He had to be made like His brothers in every way, so that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, in order to make atonement (h) for the sins of the people.
18
Because He Himself suffered when He was tempted, He is able to help those who are being tempted.

1
Therefore we ought to pay greater attention to the things that were heard, lest perhaps we drift away.
2
For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just penalty,
3
how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvationwhich at the first having been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard,
4
God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders, by various works of power, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will?

Jesus like His Brothers

5
For he didn’t subject the world to come, of which we speak, to angels.
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?
7
You made him a little lower than the angels. You crowned him with glory and honor.(a)
8
You have put all things in subjection under his feet.”(b) For in that he subjected all things to him, he left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we don’t yet see all things subjected to him.
9
But we see him who has been made a little lower than the angels, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that by the grace of God he should taste of death for everyone.
10
For it became him, for whom are all things and through whom are all things, in bringing many children to glory, to make the author of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
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,(c)
12
saying,I will declare your name to my brothers. Among the congregation I will sing your praise.”(d)
13
Again, “I will put my trust in him.” Again, “Behold, here I am with the children whom God has given me.”(e)
14
Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, he also himself in the same way partook of the same, that through death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,
15
and might deliver all of them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
16
For most certainly, he doesn’t give help to angels, but he gives help to the offspring(f) of Abraham.
17
Therefore he was obligated in all things to be made like his brothers, that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make atonement for the sins of the people.
18
For in that he himself has suffered being tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.
