Verses 1-11
He emptied Himself - was born in man’s likeness - was obedient even when it meant death - accepted even the shameful death of an outcast criminal.
There could be no shortcuts. There could be no other way.
Because He Himself suffered when He was tempted, He is able to help those who are being tempted (Heb. 2:18). In Jesus the human, you and I realize that we may be vulnerable, but we do have hope.
