But one has somewhere testified: What is man that You remember him, or the son of man that You care for him?

You made him lower than the angels for a short time; You crowned him with glory and honor

and subjected everything under his feet. For in subjecting everything to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. As it is, we do not yet see everything subjected to him.

But we do see Jesus— made lower than the angels for a short time so that by God's grace He might taste death for everyone—crowned with glory and honor because of His suffering in death.

For in bringing many sons to glory, it was entirely appropriate that God—all things exist for Him and through Him—should make the source of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

For the One who sanctifies and those who are sanctified all have one Father. That is why Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers,

For it is clear that He does not reach out to help angels, but to help Abraham's offspring.

Therefore, He had to be like His brothers in every way, so that He could become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

For since He Himself was tested and has suffered, He is able to help those who are tested.

For Jesus is considered worthy of more glory than Moses, just as the builder has more honor than the house.

for 40 years. Therefore I was provoked with that generation and said, "They always go astray in their hearts, and they have not known My ways."

For we have become companions of the Messiah if we hold firmly until the end the reality that we had at the start.

For who heard and rebelled? Wasn't it really all who came out of Egypt under Moses?

And who was He provoked with for 40 years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

For we also have received the good news just as they did; but the message they heard did not benefit them, since they were not united with those who heard it in faith

(for we who have believed enter the rest), in keeping with what He has said: So I swore in My anger, they will not enter My rest. And yet His works have been finished since the foundation of the world,

for somewhere He has spoken about the seventh day in this way: And on the seventh day God rested from all His works.

Since it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly received the good news did not enter because of disobedience,

For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken later about another day.

Therefore, a Sabbath rest remains for God's people.
