Hebrews 1:9

Hebrews 1:9

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;

12 Like a cloak You will fold them up,
And they will be changed.
But You are the ^asame,
And Your years will not fail.”

13 But to which of the angels has He ever said:
^a“Sit at My right hand,
Till I make Your enemies Your footstool”?

14 ^aAre they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will ^binherit salvation?

Hebrews 1:10 >>

Hath anointed thee (exrisen se). First aorist active indicative of xriw, to anoint, from which verb the verbal Xristov (Anointed One) comes. See Christ's use of exrisen in Luke 4:18 from Isaiah 66:1.

With the oil of gladness (elaion agalliasewv). Accusative case with exrisen (second accusative besides se). Perhaps the festive anointing on occasions of joy (Hebrews 12:2). See Luke 1:44.

Fellows (metoxouv). Old word from metexw, partners, sharers, in N.T. only in Hebrews save Luke 5:7. Note para with accusative here, beside, beyond, above (by comparison, extending beyond).
