¹⁰For it was fitting for Him, ^qfor whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation ^rperfect through sufferings. ¹¹For ^sboth He who ⁷sanctifies and those who are being sanctified ^tare all of one, for which reason ^uHe is not ashamed to call them brethren, ¹²saying:

^v“I will declare Your name to My brethren;

In the midst of the assembly I will sing praise to You.”

¹³And again:

^w“I will put My trust in Him.”

And again:

^x“Here am I and the children whom God has given Me.”

¹⁴Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He ^yHimself likewise shared in the same, ^zthat through death He might destroy him who had the power of ^adeath, that is, the devil, ¹⁵and release those who ^bthrough fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. ¹⁶For indeed He does not ⁸give aid to angels, but He does ⁹give aid to the seed of Abraham. ¹⁷Therefore, in all things He had ^cto be made like His brethren, that He might be ^da merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people. ¹⁸^eFor in that He Himself has suffered, being ¹tempted, He is able to aid those who are tempted.
