Hebrews 2:14

Hebrews 2:14

12 saying:
^a“I will declare Your name to My brethren;
In the midst of the assembly I will sing praise to You.”

13 And again:
^a“I will put My trust in Him.” And again:
^b“Here am I and the children whom God has given Me.”

14 Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He ^aHimself likewise shared in the same, ^bthat through death He might destroy him who had the power of ^cdeath, that is, the devil,

15 and release those who ^athrough fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

16 For indeed He does not¹ give aid to angels, but He does² give aid to the seed of Abraham.

17 Therefore, in all things He had ^ato be made like His brethren, that He might be ^ba merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

18 ^aFor in that He Himself has suffered, being¹ tempted, He is able to aid those who are tempted.

<< Hebrews 2:13

Hebrews 2:15 >>

Hebrews 2:14 He also himself likewise took part of the same. As these children are all mortal he, though divine, took on our mortality. He did this, that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death. That he might bring to nought the power of him who first brought death on our race, "that is, the devil". It was needful; that he be clothed with mortality in order to die, and needful to die in order to deliver men from the power of sin and give them a glorious hope.
