HEBREWS CHAPTER TWO VS. 5-9 (USING KING JAMES STUDY TEXT, STUDY BOOK WILL REFERENCE A DIFFERENT VERSION FOR READING) Heb 2:5   For not unto angels did he subject the world to come , whereof we speak.  Heb 2:6   But one hath somewhere testified, saying, What is man , that thou art mindful of him? Or the son of man , that thou visitest him?   Heb 2:7   Thou madest him a little lower than the angels ; Thou crownedst him with glory and honor , And didst set him over the works of thy hands :   Heb 2:8   Thou didst put all things in subjection under his feet.

HEBREWS CHAPTER TWO VS. 1-4 Heb 2:1   Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things that were heard , lest haply we drift away from them .  Heb 2:2   For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast , and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward;  Heb 2:3   how shall we escape , if we neglect so great a salvation ? which having at the first been spoken through the Lord , was confirmed unto us by them that heard ;  Heb 2:4   God also bearing witness with them , both by signs and wonders, and by manifold powers, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will .  2:1-4  Main point: If this is from God, and Jesus is God you’d better pay attention to the offer of salvation. If you ignore it, how will you escape (judgment implied)? Additional Notes: Chapter one relates the importance (power) of the speaker – establishes authority. This chapter continues the...

Suffice it to say that the cultural view of some towards angels was to honor them. Some studies have concluded actual angel worship, some of which has been debated and shown to be possibly erroneous. Israel’s attitude/knowledge of angels throughout biblical history: Gen 18:2   and he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood over against him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself to the earth (the promise of a son to Abraham, and the judgement against Sodom) David illustrates the hierarchal position of man/angels: Psa 8:5   For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels ,   ( gods) Dan 9:21   yea, while I was speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the ...
