Hebrews 1:9

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Hebrews 1:1-13

Seeing Christ in Hebrews Hebrews 1:1-13 INTRODUCTORY WORDS The Book of Hebrews ever stands before us as a great Bible masterpiece on the glories of Christ. The 1st chapter, which we are using, for the introduction, demonstrates that Christ is, in at least seven stated points superior to angels. We need not marvel at this, inasmuch as the opening verses of Hebrews establish the Deity of our Lord, and Saviour Jesus Christ. In these verses, Christ is set forth as follows: 1. He is God's Son. ... read more

The Superiority of Christ to Angels Hebrews 1:1-14 INTRODUCTORY WORDS Jesus Christ was God in ages past; He was God, manifest in flesh; He is God in the ages to come. In His Deity, He is the same yesterday, today, and for ever. He was not less than God, in the humiliation of His incarnation: He is not more than God in the added glories of His exaltation. There are some who would teach that Jesus Christ, in eternities past, was no more than perfect angel; that in His earth life, He was... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 1:5-14

The Superiority of the Son to the Angels (Hebrews 1:5 to Hebrews 2:14 ) He Is Now Contrasted With The Angels, the Heavenly Beings and Intermediaries between God and the world (Hebrews 1:5-14). Having revealed the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ as ‘the Son’, the writer now goes on to contrast Him with all heavenly beings, although already having revealed Him as superior to the angels in His being stated by God to be ‘My Son’. He does this by means of seven quotations from the Scriptures.... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 1:8-9

‘But of the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, is (or ‘your throne is God’) for ever and ever. And the sceptre of uprightness is the sceptre of your kingdom. You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you With the oil of gladness above your fellows.” This fourth quotation parallels ideas in the first. There He was crowned, here He has his everlasting throne. There He became God’s Anointed. Here He is anointed as supreme ruler. And central to the idea... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 1:5-14

Hebrews 1:5 to Hebrews 2:18 . The Son is Superior to the Angels.— For this theme the way has been prepared in the closing words of Hebrews 1:14. The section may possibly be directed against angel-worship, which in some churches, as we know from Colossians, was encroaching on the faith in Christ. More probably the writer’ s aim is simply to enforce the supremacy of Christ as compared with even the highest of created beings. In Hebrews 1:5-2 Chronicles : he collects a number of Scripture texts... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 1:9

Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity: the administration of this King in his kingdom is suitable to his throne and sceptre, it is all goodness; for he so loved righteousness, and hated iniquity, being righteous and holy in himself, in life and death, expiating sin, and sanctifying believers. So that he acts as to both of these properly from himself, perfectly and for ever. Therefore God: it may be a reason why he so loved righteousness, being anointed, or of his unction, because he... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Hebrews 1:5-14

CRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL NOTESHebrews 1:5. Angels.—Properly, any living being carrying out the Divine will is an angel, a messenger, a servant. But the word “angel” is precisely kept for such messengers as belonged to other than the earthly sphere. The angelophanies of the Old Testament were foreshadowings of the revelation in the “Man Christ Jesus.” Said He.—The interrogation is intended to be a strong negation. Begotten Thee.—Constituted Thee; but the term is designed to indicate the different... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Hebrews 1:1-14

Hebrews 1:1 . God, who at sundry times and in divers manners, spake to the fathers. By the personal appearances of Christ, the Word of the Lord; by voices, by angels, by visions, by dreams, and by impulses of the Holy Ghost. In these forms we have received all the glorious doctrines of truth, and particular revelations, and that chiefly in times of ecclesiastical trouble. Hebrews 1:2 . Hath in these last days, those new and good days foretold by the prophet. Joel 2:28. That old men... read more
