神在末世借他儿子晓谕世人

神既在古时借着众先知多次多方地晓谕列祖, 就在这末世借着他儿子晓谕我们;又早已立他为承受万有的,也曾借着他创造诸世界。 他是神荣耀所发的光辉,是神本体的真像,常用他权能的命令托住万有。他洗净了人的罪,就坐在高天至大者的右边。 他所承受的名既比天使的名更尊贵,就远超过天使。 所有的天使,神从来对哪一个说“你是我的儿子,我今日生你”?又指着哪一个说“我要做他的父,他要做我的子”? 再者,神使长子到世上来的时候[a],就说:“神的使者都要拜他。” 论到使者,又说:“神以风为使者,以火焰为仆役。” 论到子却说:“神啊,你的宝座是永永远远的,你的国权是正直的。 你喜爱公义,恨恶罪恶,所以神,就是你的神,用喜乐油膏你,胜过膏你的同伴。”

天地都要灭没唯主永远长存

10 又说:“主啊,你起初立了地的根基,天也是你手所造的。 11 天地都要灭没,你却要长存;天地都要像衣服渐渐旧了。 12 你要将天地卷起来,像一件外衣,天地就都改变了;唯有你永不改变,你的年数没有穷尽。” 13 所有的天使,神从来对哪一个说“你坐在我的右边,等我使你仇敌做你的脚凳”? 14 天使岂不都是服役的灵,奉差遣为那将要承受救恩的人效力吗?

劃時代的啟示

在古代,上帝曾藉著先知以各種方式多次向我們的祖先說話; 在這世界的末期,祂又藉著自己的兒子親自向我們說話。上帝早已立祂承受萬物,並藉著祂創造了宇宙萬物。 祂正是上帝榮耀的光輝,是上帝本體的真像。祂用自己充滿能力的話語維繫萬物。祂洗淨了世人的罪之後,便坐在天上至高上帝的右邊。 祂既承受了比天使更高的名分,就遠超越天使。

上帝從未對任何一個天使說:

「你是我的兒子,我今日成為你父親。」

或說:

「我要作你的父親,你要作我的兒子。」

上帝差遣祂的長子到世上來時,說:

「上帝的天使都要敬拜祂。」

上帝提到天使的時候,也只是說:

「上帝使祂的天使成為風,使祂的僕役成為火焰。」

但論到祂的兒子,祂卻說:

「上帝啊,你的寶座永遠長存,
你以公義的杖執掌王權。
你喜愛公義,憎惡邪惡。
所以上帝,你的上帝,
用喜樂之油膏你,使你超過同伴。」

10 此外又說:

「主啊,太初你奠立大地的根基,
親手創造諸天。
11 天地都要消亡,但你永遠長存。
天地都會像衣服漸漸破舊,
12 你要像捲外衣一樣把天地捲起來。
天地將如衣服一樣被更換,
但你永遠不變,
你的年日永無窮盡。」

13 上帝從未對任何一個天使說:

「你坐在我的右邊,
等我使你的仇敵成為你的腳凳。」

14 天使豈不都是服役的靈嗎?他們奉差遣,豈不是去為那些將要承受救恩的人服務嗎?

God’s Final Word: His Son

In the past God spoke(A) to our ancestors through the prophets(B) at many times and in various ways,(C) but in these last days(D) he has spoken to us by his Son,(E) whom he appointed heir(F) of all things, and through whom(G) also he made the universe.(H) The Son is the radiance of God’s glory(I) and the exact representation of his being,(J) sustaining all things(K) by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins,(L) he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.(M) So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.(N)

The Son Superior to Angels

For to which of the angels did God ever say,

“You are my Son;
    today I have become your Father”[a]?(O)

Or again,

“I will be his Father,
    and he will be my Son”[b]?(P)

And again, when God brings his firstborn(Q) into the world,(R) he says,

“Let all God’s angels worship him.”[c](S)

In speaking of the angels he says,

“He makes his angels spirits,
    and his servants flames of fire.”[d](T)

But about the Son he says,

“Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever;(U)
    a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.
You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness;
    therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions(V)
    by anointing you with the oil(W) of joy.”[e](X)

10 He also says,

“In the beginning, Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth,
    and the heavens are the work of your hands.(Y)
11 They will perish, but you remain;
    they will all wear out like a garment.(Z)
12 You will roll them up like a robe;
    like a garment they will be changed.
But you remain the same,(AA)
    and your years will never end.”[f](AB)

13 To which of the angels did God ever say,

“Sit at my right hand(AC)
    until I make your enemies
    a footstool(AD) for your feet”[g]?(AE)

14 Are not all angels ministering spirits(AF) sent to serve those who will inherit(AG) salvation?(AH)
