The Son Exalted Above Angels
a“You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You”? And again:
b“I will be to Him a Father,
And He shall be to Me a Son”?
b“Let all the angels of God worship Him.”
a“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;
A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.

Articles, Bible studies, and sermons that contain Hebrews 1:5:
Hebrews 1:5-7
So here we have chapter 1. I only want to read five verses out of this. Because here we are comparing the Son of God, Jesus Christ, now glorified, sitting at the right hand of the Father in heaven, as he says in the first three verses of this chapter, and then you have this idea of angels as very powerful beings. But he is saying no, there is no comparison. The Son of God, Jesus of Nazareth, who gave Himself for us, He was buried, rose the third day and ascended to sit at the right hand of the Father, is far superior to any angel, even the cherubim.
So yeah, He did make them of spirit. But what does He call them? Ministers, servants, that is what minister means. His intention in bringing Jesus Christ into the world was to make Him the King of kings. But of the angels, He made them to be servants.
