For He did not subject to angels the world to come, concerning which we are speaking.

You have made him for a little while lower than the angels;You have crowned him with glory and honor,And have appointed him over the works of Your hands;

You have put all things in subjection under his feet."For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we do not yet see all things subjected to him.

But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels—Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.

For who provoked Him when they had heard? Indeed, did not all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses?

And with whom was He angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose corpses fell in the wilderness?

For indeed we have had good news proclaimed to us, just as they also; but the word that was heard did not profit those who were not united with faith among those who heard.

For we who have believed enter that rest, just as He has said,"As I swore in My wrath,They shall not enter My rest,"although His works were finished from the foundation of the world.

For He has spoken somewhere in this way concerning the seventh day: "And God rested on the seventh day from all His works";

Therefore, since it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly had good news proclaimed to them failed to enter because of disobedience,
