Hebrews 1:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Hebrews 1:6

4 having become so much better than the angels, as ^aHe has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.

The Son Exalted Above Angels

5 For to which of the angels did He ever say:
^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”?

6 But when He again brings ^athe firstborn into the world, He says:
^b“Let all the angels of God worship Him.”

7 And of the angels He says:
^a“Who makes His angels spirits
And His ministers a flame of fire.”

8 But to the Son He sa¹ys:
^a“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;
A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.

9 You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness;
Therefore God, Your God, ^ahas anointed You
With the oil of gladness more than Your companions.”

10 And:
^a“You, Lord, in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth,
And the heavens are the work of Your hands.

11 ^aThey will perish, but You remain;
And ^bthey will all grow old like a garment;
