has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the [a]worlds; (A)who being the brightness of His glory and the express (B)image of His person, and (C)upholding all things by the word of His power, (D)when He had [b]by Himself [c]purged [d]our sins, (E)sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become so much better than the angels, as (F)He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.

The Son Exalted Above Angels

For to which of the angels did He ever say:

(G)“You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You”?

And again:

(H)“I will be to Him a Father,
And He shall be to Me a Son”?

But when He again brings (I)the firstborn into the world, He says:

(J)“Let all the angels of God worship Him.”

And of the angels He says:

(K)“Who makes His angels spirits
And His ministers a flame of fire.”

But to the Son He says:

(L)“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;
A [e]scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.
