Hebrews 2
1For this reason, we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard so that we do not drift away from it.
2For if the word spoken through angels was legally binding, and every transgression and disobedience received a righteous retribution,
3how will we escape if we disregard so great a salvation, which, having at the first been spoken by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard?
4(God also bearing witness with them, both by signs, and wonders, and by various miracles, and distributions of holy spirit, according to his own will).
5For he did not put the inhabited world that is about to come (about which we are speaking) in subjection to angels.
6Instead, someone has testified somewhere, saying, What is man, that you think about him? Or the son of man, that you care for him?
7You made him a little lower than the angels. You crowned him with glory and honor, and set him over the works of your hands.
8You put all things in subjection under his feet. Now in putting all things in subjection to him, he left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we do not yet see all things subjected to him.
9But we do see Jesus, who has been made a little lower than the angels, and now has been crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might experience death on behalf of everyone.
10For it was appropriate for Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
11For both he who makes holy and those who are made holy are all from one, which is why he is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters,
12saying, I will declare your name to my brothers and sisters; in the midst of the church I will sing your praise.
13And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Look! Here I am, and the children whom God has given to me.
14Now since the children participate fully in blood and flesh, in a similar way, he also himself shared the same so that through death he could make ineffective the one who holds the power of death, that is, the Devil,
15and free all those who were held in slavery all their lives by their fear of death.
16Indeed, it hardly needs to be said that he did not come to help angels, but to give help to the seed of Abraham.
17This being the case, he had to be made like his brothers and sisters in every respect in order to become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, so that he could wipe away the sins of the people.
18For since he himself was tempted in that which he suffered, he is able to help those who are tempted.
