29 We know that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, (A)we do not know where He is from.”

13 But when He, (A)the Spirit of truth, comes, He will (B)guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come.

For if the word (A)spoken through (B)angels proved [a]unalterable, and (C)every violation and act of disobedience received a just [b](D)punishment, (E)how will we escape if we neglect so great a (F)salvation? [c]After it was at first (G)spoken through the Lord, it was (H)confirmed to us by those who heard, God also testifying with them, both by (I)signs and wonders, and by (J)various [d]miracles and by [e](K)gifts of the Holy Spirit (L)according to His own will.

Earth Subject to Man

For He did not subject to angels [f](M)the world to come, about which we are speaking. But someone has testified (N)somewhere, saying,

(O)What is man, that You think of him?
Or a son of man, that You are concerned about him?
(P)You have made him [g]for a little while lower than angels;
You have crowned him with glory and honor[h];
(Q)You have put everything in subjection under his feet.”

For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. But now (R)we do not yet see all things subjected to him.

Jesus Briefly Humbled

But we do see Him who was (S)made [i]for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, (T)because of His suffering death (U)crowned with glory and honor, so that (V)by the grace of God He might (W)taste death (X)for everyone.

10 For (Y)it was fitting for Him, (Z)for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to (AA)perfect the [j](AB)originator of their salvation through sufferings. 11 For both He who (AC)sanctifies and those who (AD)are [k]sanctified are all (AE)from one Father; for this reason He is not ashamed to call them (AF)brothers and sisters, 12 saying,

(AG)I will proclaim Your name to My brothers,
In the midst of the assembly I will sing Your praise.”

13 And again,

(AH)I will put My trust in Him.”

And again,

(AI)Behold, I and the children whom God has given Me.”

14 Therefore, since the children share in [l](AJ)flesh and blood, (AK)He Himself likewise also partook of the same, so that (AL)through death He might destroy (AM)the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and free those who through (AN)fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives. 16 For clearly He does not [m]give help to angels, but He gives help to the [n]descendants of Abraham. 17 Therefore, in all things He [o]had (AO)to be made like His brothers so that He might (AP)become a merciful and faithful (AQ)high priest in (AR)things pertaining to God, to (AS)make [p]propitiation for the sins of the people. 18 For since He Himself was [q](AT)tempted in that which He has suffered, He is able to come to the aid of those who are [r]tempted.
