Hebrews 2:5-7
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
For The Coming World Is Subject To Jesus, Who Tasted Death For All And Was Crowned
5 For He[a] did not subject to angels the coming world concerning which we are speaking. 6 But one solemnly-testified somewhere saying, “What is man that You remember[b] him, or the son[c] of man that You look-after him? 7 You made him lower[d] than angels for a little[e] while. You crowned him with glory and honor.

- Hebrews 2:5 That is, God. The writer continues his description of the Son. Rulership was not given to angels.
- Hebrews 2:6 That is, keep him in mind for his benefit.
- Hebrews 2:6 The OT verse is an example of Hebrew parallelism, so this may mean the same as ‘man’ earlier; humanity or the offspring of humanity. The writer then applies this OT quote to Christ in v 9. Or, Son of Man, referring to Jesus; the writer applies this quote to Christ beginning right here. In this case, ‘his’ and ‘him’ in v 7-8 refer to Jesus.
- Hebrews 2:7 That is, in physical status, being mortal.
- Hebrews 2:7 Or, a little bit lower than angels.
