Hebrews 2 — Context

10

For it was fitting for him, for whom and through whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

11

For indeed he who makes holy and those being made holy all have the same origin, and so he is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters,

12

saying,“I will proclaim your name to my brothers; in the midst of the assembly I will praise you.”

13

Again he says,“I will be confident in him,” and again,“Here I am, with the children God has given me.”

14

Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, he likewise shared in their humanity, so that through death he could destroy the one who holds the power of death(that is, the devil),

15

and set free those who were held in slavery all their lives by their fear of death.

16

For surely his concern is not for angels, but he is concerned for Abraham’s descendants.
