Bible: Hebrews 2:5-9
Exposition of Psalm 8: Jesus and the Destiny of Humanity
2:5 For he did not put the world to come, 1 about which we are speaking, 2 under the control of angels. 2:6 Instead someone testified somewhere:
“What is man that you think of him 3 or the son of man that you care for him?
2:7 You made him lower than the angels for a little while.
You crowned him with glory and honor. 4
2:8 You put all things under his control.” 5
For when he put all things under his control, he left nothing outside of his control. At present we do not yet see all things under his control, 6 2:9 but we see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, 7 now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, 8 so that by God’s grace he would experience 9 death on behalf of everyone.
