Hebrews 2:5-13

Jesus Made Fully Human 5It is not to angels that he has subjected the world to come, about which we are speaking.

6But there is a place where someone has testified: “What is mankind that you are mindful of them, a son of man that you care for him?

7You made them a little Or them for a little while lower than the angels; you crowned them with glory and honor

8and put everything under their feet.” Psalm 8:4-6 Or 7 You made him a little lower than the angels; / you crowned him with glory and honor / 8 and put everything under his feet.” In putting everything under them, Or him God left nothing that is not subject to them. Or him Yet at present we do not see everything subject to them. Or him

9But we do see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone. 10In bringing many sons and daughters to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through what he suffered. 11Both the one who makes people holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters. The Greek word for brothers and sisters (adelphoi) refers here to believers, both men and women, as part of God’s family; also in verse 12; and in 3:1, 12; 10:19; 13:22.

12He says, “I will declare your name to my brothers and sisters; in the assembly I will sing your praises.” Psalm 22:22

13And again, “I will put my trust in him.” Isaiah 8:17 And again he says, “Here am I, and the children God has given me.” Isaiah 8:18
