Hebrews
The document provides an overview of key points from Hebrews 1-2. It discusses how God spoke through prophets but now speaks through His Son, who is the heir of all things and exact imprint of God's nature. It notes that after making purification for sins, Jesus sat down at the right hand of God, having become superior to angels. The document then summarizes that Jesus is no angel and angels are created beings, while Jesus is greater than them. Hebrews 2 is summarized as warning against neglecting salvation and discussing how Jesus is the author of salvation through his suffering and death, and how he can help those suffering temptation.

- 11. 1 Therefore we mustpay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it.2 For since the message declared by angels proved to be reliable, and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution,3 how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared at first by the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard, 4 while God also bore witness by signs and wonders and various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.
- 12. Neglecting Salvation Lack of attention = drift All Must Deal with truth of salvation one way or another Jesus taught it, disciples witnessed it, & God professes it through miracles & signs The point of miracles is not the act, but to bring glory to God
- 13. 5 Now it wasnot to angels that God subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking. 6 It has been testified somewhere, "What is man, that you are mindful of him, or the son of man, that you care for him? 7 You made him for a little while lower than the angels; you have crowned him with glory and honor, 8 putting everything in subjection under his feet.
- 14. Now in puttingeverything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. At present, we do not yet see everything in subjection to him. 9 But we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
- 15. 10 For it wasfitting that he, for whom and by whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, should make the founder of their salvation perfect through suffering.11 For he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified all have one source. That is why he is not ashamed to call them brothers,
- 16. 12 saying, "I will tellof your name to my brothers; in the midst of the congregation I will sing your praise." 13 And again, "I will put my trust in him." And again, "Behold, I and the children God has given me."

- 18. 14 Since therefore thechildren share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil,15 and deliver all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery.16 For surely it is not angels that he helps, but he helps the offspring of Abraham
- 19. 17 Therefore he hadto be made like his brothers in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.18 For because he himself has suffered when tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.
- 20. Suffering Servant Jesus came for us God doesn’t need you, he wants you Jesus was like us in flesh, perfect but felt all we feel Christ might not take away our suffering, but he knows what you are going through and promises his presence
Editor's Notes
- #2 Encouragement for struggling Christians.... By pointing them to Christ, not solutions!!!!\n\nsermonic letter\n\nChristology\n\nGod spoken of in action 68 times...... most in NT. \n
- #3 Prophet\nPriest\nKing\n
- #4 "in many ways and in many times" -- God has chosen to speak through many different ways, but he does speak to us!!!\n\nburning bush, still small voice, vision in the temple, family circumstances, dreams, angels, visions, natural disasters, \n
- #5 Old Testament is connected to new.... not separate\n\n"Last Age" is more appropriate..... Age of the Church = today\n\n"through" = God & Jesus are triune, one acts with the other\n\nJesus is a reflection of God's glory, his life brought God glory\n\nWe know how God feels and thinks because we know Jesus in scripture\n
- #6 The author has an unusual \nnumber of ways of referring to what Christ ha’s done for man: The Savior made a propitiation for sins\n He put sins away so that God remembers them no more\n He bore sin\nhe offered a sacrifice (thysia ) for sins\nhe made an offering (prosphora ) for sin\nand brought about remission of sin \nHe annulled sin by his sacrifice\nHe brought about redemption from transgressions\n\nvariety of things the former covenant could not do with respect to sin, the implication in each case being that Christ has now done it\n\n Whatever had to be done about sin he has done.\n
- #7 "sins" occurs in this epistle 24 times..... sin stained all creation\n\nPriests stand..... a ruling king sits\n\n"better" 13 of 19 times in NT\nthere are better things \nthat the less is blessed of the better\nthere is a better hope \na better covenant\nthere are better promises\nbetter sacrifices\na better possession\na better country\na better resurrection\nsomething better\nblood that speaks better \nemphasis on what is “better” arises from the author’s deep conviction that Jesus Christ is “better” and that he has accomplished something “better” than anyone else.\n
- #8 \n
- #9 all knowing\nall places\nall powerful\n
- #10 \n
- #11 \n
- #12 Message of the Old Testament is proven reliable\n\nEvery act of sin requires retribution, or God isn't just, but a wishy washy deity \n
- #13 \n
- #14 diamartyromai = testify solemnly ...... serious business\n\nPsalm 8:4-6\n\nThe psalmist asks what there is about man that the great God \nshould stoop to help him?\n\nBe careful..... this is not saying that Jesus is lower than angels, it's referring to his human shell..... Dualist Hebrew way of writing.... Jesus refers to himself as Son of Man.... here is as "son who became man"\n
- #15 Again, Hebrew form of a rhetorical question\n\nWe are not God, so we have no clue as to all the ways he's working all around us\n
- #16 \n
- #17 Psalm 22:22\n\nIsaiah 8:18\n\nHe had a real community of nature with those he came \nto save.\n
- #18 \n
- #19 some translation say "humanity" but it's not there in Greek\nJesus was still holy and whole, but human like us\n\nGod is creator of life and author of salvation\nSatan is the creator of Death.... this brings up the question of why did God allow it, but the author doesn't address it\n\nIt wasn't questioned as it is sometimes today!!!!!\n\nOnly focus is on Jesus as the one who saves and his relationship with us more than Angels.... Again we are brought into family of the Trinity \n
- #20 "He had to" = a phrase of economic obligation/duty\n\nWe are his and Jesus was sent to make God just and righteous, but out of love, not just duty...... the author is setting this tone\n\nGod loves us so much, even in our rebellion\n
- #21 Tempted in every way, Weeps when Lazarus dies, Cries out to the father in the garden, beaten & killed on the cross \nHe’s not a distant king, he’s not like a President or a representative who doesn’t know the people\nHe promises his presence always and weeps when we weep, and his heart aches when ours aches\n
