John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 1:1-14

The Final Revelation in the Son1-4. Introduction. God of old revealed Himself to the fathers of the race, but the revelation was not complete or final. In our own day He has given a direct revelation in the person of His own Son, the Lord and Creator of the universe, the perfect expression of the divine nature, who after His temporary humiliation upon earth, now occupies the highest place in the heavenly courts.1. At sundry times and in divers manners] RV ’by divers portions and in divers... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 1:8

(8) Unto.—Rather, of. The connection with Hebrews 1:7 is so close (“Whereas of the angels He saith . . . of the Son He saith”), that we must not vary the rendering of the preposition. The passage which follows is taken from Psalms 45:6-7. As the words stand in the ordinary Greek text, they agree exactly with the LXX.; but certain alterations of reading are required by the best evidence. After the words “for ever and ever” and must be restored, and in the following clause the and a must change... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 1:9

(9) The King by divine election has been exalted by divine reward. (Comp. Hebrews 2:9, and Philippians 2:9-10.)Therefore God.—It is possible, but not probable, that the words, both here and in the Psalm, should be rendered, Therefore, O God, Thy God hath anointed Thee.Thy fellows.—In the first application, probably, these words point to other earthly kings. (Comp. Psalms 89:27.) Hence Ephesians 1:21 will be the best commentary upon them in their higher meaning. read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Hebrews 1:1-14

Hebrews 1:1 In the fulness of time both Judaism and Paganism had come to nought; the outward framework, which concealed yet suggested the Living Truth, had never been intended to last, and it was dissolving under the beams of the Sun of Justice which shone behind it and through it The process of change had been slow; it had been done not rashly, but by rule and measure, 'at sundry times and in divers manners'; first one disclosure and then another, till the whole evangelical doctrine was... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Hebrews 1:4-14

CHAPTER IITHE SON AND THE ANGELSHebrews 1:4 - Hebrews 2:18The most dangerous and persistent error against which the theologians of the New Testament had to contend was the doctrine of emanations. The persistence of this error lay in its affinity with the Christian conception of mediation between God and men; its danger sprang from its complete inconsistency with the Christian idea of the person and work of the Mediator. For the Hebrew conception of God, as the "I AM," tended more and more in... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Hebrews 1:9

1:9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated {r} iniquity; therefore God, [even] thy God, hath {s} anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy {t} fellows.(r) This type of speech in which the Jews use contrasting phrases, has great force in it.(s) In that, that the word became flesh, by sending the Holy Spirit on him without measure.(t) For he is the head and we are his members. read more

L.M. Grant

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 1:1-14

In the first verse is compressed admirably the one most vital truth as to the history of man in all past ages; to which Jews would fully agree. God is, without preliminary, presented as having "in many parts and in many ways" spoken "in time past unto the fathers by the prophets." This was certainly revelation, yet gradually added to, and therefore only partial, not in any sense a complete revelation of God. Let us note too that He was not limited as to the ways in which He saw fit to... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Hebrews 1:1-14

CHRIST AND THE ANGELS While in these chapters, the comparison is chiefly between Christ and the angels, yet they open with an important contrast between him and the prophets (1:1-3), in which His superiority is seen in seven particulars: 1. He is God’s Son. 2. He is Heir of all things. 3. He made the worlds. 4. He is the Express Image of God. 5. He Himself purged our sins. 6. He upholds all things. 7. He is seated at the right hand of God. The “express image” of God is equivalent to “God.”... read more
