The Son Exalted Above Angels

5For to which of the angels did He ever say:

h“You are My Son,

Today I have begotten You”?

And again:

i“I will be to Him a Father,

And He shall be to Me a Son”?

6But when He again brings jthe firstborn into the world, He says:

k“Let all the angels of God worship Him.”

7And of the angels He says:

l“Who makes His angels spirits

And His ministers a flame of fire.”

8But to the Son He says:

m“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;

A 6scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.

9You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness;

Therefore God, Your God, nhas anointed You

With the oil of gladness more than Your companions.”

10And:

o“You, Lord, in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth,

And the heavens are the work of Your hands.

11pThey will perish, but You remain;

And qthey will all grow old like a garment;

12Like a cloak You will fold them up,

And they will be changed.

But You are the rsame,

And Your years will not fail.”

13But to which of the angels has He ever said:

s“Sit at My right hand,

Till I make Your enemies Your footstool”?

14tAre they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will uinherit salvation?

Read in Logos
Hebrews 1:13–14: And to which of the angels has he ever said, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet”? Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation?
