Then skipping over to Hebrews 2, it seems that the writer of Hebrews didn't have a King James Bible either and he (or "she", okay?) has a "king" in mind as well, ruling over peoples.
Further, the writer of Hebrews goes on to associate this "man" with "the Son." [B] It almost seems that God created man for the very purpose of becoming a man Himself. No wonder the angels were astonished. Maybe this was too much for some of them and they rebelled? |
