Hebrews {1:1} God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets
God at various times- God in different ways-
-spoke in the past to the fathers by the prophets.
{1:2} Hath in these last days spoken unto us by [his] Son,
God recently has spoken to us by Jesus
{1:2}...whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
Jesus who God made heir of all things.Jesus who God made the worlds with.
{1:3} Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person,
Jesus the brightness of God's glory.Jesus the very image of His Father.
{1:3} ...and upholding all things by the word of his power,
All things are kept in place by God's Power, by Jesus' Power.
{1:3} ...when he had by himself purged our sins
Jesus purged our sins by himself. It is ONLY by Jesus and His sacrifice that our sins can be purged.
{1:3} ...sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
Jesus at the right hand of God.
{1:4} Being made so much better than the angels,
Jesus better than the angels.
{1:4} ...as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
Jesus by His inheritance from God has a better name than angels.
{1:5} For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee?
To what angels has God told they are His Son, that He has begotten them?
{1:5}...And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
To what angels has God said He will be a Father, and they His Sons?
{1:6} And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
All the angels of God worship Jesus- the firstbegotton of the Father. {1:7} And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
Angels are spirits, angels are ministers, angels flames of fire.
{1:8} But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever:
Jesus' throne is forever.
{1:8}...a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
Jesus' righteousness is the power of His kingdom.
{1:9} Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, [even] thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
Jesus loves righteousness, hates sin- and God has made Him better than all else.
{1:10} And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:
Jesus in the beginning created the earth and heavens.
{1:11} They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;
The earth and the heavens will be destroyed, bue Jesus will remain. The earth and heavens will get old as a garment wears away over time.
{1:12} And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
As folded clothes the earth will be changed, but Jesus will forever and ever be the same.
{1:13} But to which of the angels said he at any times, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?
To what angels did God ever say sit at my right hand until I make thine enemies beneath thee? None.
{1:14} Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
All the angels are ministering spirits.
All the angels are sent to minister to those who will inherit salvation.
*******
Jesus was with God in the beginning. By Jesus all things were made, by Jesus all things are saved, by God's angels we are ministered, and those angels are not God's only begotten Son, those angels are willingly in subjection to God and help us who will inherit salvation through Jesus.
May we all seek to know Jesus more fully, to be known of him more fully and find Salvation in Jesus realizing that we are not in this battle on our own. We do receive help in Christ's ministering angels.
May God bless and keep us forever His.
Amen.
