2Therefore we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it.G1223G5124G2248G1163G4056G4337G191G3379G39012For since the message declared by angels proved to be reliable, and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution,G1063G1487G3056G2980G1223G32G1096G949G2532G3956G3847G2532G3876G2983G1738G34053how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared at first by the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard,G4459G2249G1628G272G5082G4991G3748G746G2983G2980G1223G2962G950G1519G2248G5259G1914while God also bore witness by signs and wonders and various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.G2316G4901G5037G4592G2532G5059G2532G4164G1411G2532G3311G40G4151G2596G846G2308
The Founder of Salvation
5Now it was not to angels that God subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking.G1063G32G5293G3756G5293G3625G3195G4012G3739G29806It has been testified somewhere, "What is man, that you are mindful of him, or the son of man, that you care for him?G1161G5100G4225G1263G3004G5101G2076G444G3754G3403G846G2228G5207G444G3754G1980G8467You made him for a little while lower than the angels; you have crowned him with glory and honor,G1642G846G1024G5100G1642G3844G32G4737G846G1391G2532G5092G2532G2525G846G1909G2041G4675G54958putting everything in subjection under his feet." Now in putting everything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. At present, we do not yet see everything in subjection to him.G5293G3956G5293G5270G846G4228G1063G1722G5293G3956G5293G846G863G3762G506G846G1161G3568G3708G3768G3956G5293G8469But we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.G1161G991G2424G3588G1642G1024G5100G1642G3844G32G1223G3804G2288G4737G1391G2532G5092G3704G1089G5485G2316G1089G2288G5228G395610For it was fitting that he, for whom and by whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, should make the founder of their salvation perfect through suffering.G1063G4241G846G1223G3739G3956G2532G1223G3739G3956G71G4183G5207G1519G1391G5048G747G846G4991G5048G1223G380411For he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified all have one source. That is why he is not ashamed to call them brothers,G1063G5037G37G2532G37G3956G1537G1520G1223G3739G156G1870G3756G1870G2564G846G8012saying, "I will tell of your name to my brothers; in the midst of the congregation I will sing your praise."G3004G518G4675G3686G3450G80G1722G3319G1577G5214G457113And again, "I will put my trust in him." And again, "Behold, I and the children God has given me."G2532G3825G1473G2071G3982G1909G846G2532G3825G2400G1473G2532G3813G3739G2316G1325G342714Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil,G1893G3767G3813G2841G4561G2532G129G3348G2532G846G3898G3348G846G2443G1223G2288G2673G2192G2904G2288G5123G122815and deliver all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery.G2532G525G5128G3745G1223G5401G2288G2258G3956G2198G1777G139716For surely it is not angels that he helps, but he helps the offspring of Abraham.G1063G1222G1949G3756G1949G32G235G1949G4690G1117Therefore he had to be made like his brothers in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.G3606G2596G3956G3784G3666G80G2443G1096G1655G2532G4103G749G4314G2316G1519G2433G266G299218For because he himself has suffered when tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.G1063G1722G3739G3958G846G3958G3985G1410G997G3985
