Hebrews 1:5

The Son Is Superior to Angels

¹ tn Heb “house” (also in the following verse).

² tn Or “rest.”

³ tn The translation understands the disjunctive clause in v. 1b as circumstantial-causal.

⁴ tn The verb נָטָה (natah) can carry the sense “[to cause to] bend; [to cause to] bow down” (see HALOT 693 s.v. נָטָה). For example, Gen 49:15 pictures Issachar as a donkey that “bends” its shoulder or back under a burden (cf. KJV, NASB, NRSV “He bowed the heavens”; NAB “He inclined the heavens”). Here the Lord causes the sky, pictured as a dome or vault, to bend or sink down as he descends in the storm.

⁵ tn Grk “ground, praying and saying.” Here the participle λέγων (legwn) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

⁶ tn Grk “if it is possible.”

⁷ sn This cup alludes to the wrath of God that Jesus would experience (in the form of suffering and death) for us. See Ps 11:6; 75:8-9; Isa 51:17, 19, 22 for this figure.

⁸ tn Grk “saying.” The participle λέγων (legwn) is redundant here in contemporary English and has not been translated.

⁹ tn Grk “this”; the referent (the cup) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

¹⁰ sn A quotation from Ps 31:5. It is a psalm of trust. The righteous, innocent sufferer trusts in God. Luke does not have the cry of pain from Ps 22:1 (cf. Matt 27:46; Mark 15:34), but notes Jesus’ trust instead.

¹¹ tn Or “they removed.”

¹² tn Grk “lifted up his eyes above.”

¹³ tn Or “that you have heard me.”

¹⁴ tn Grk “Jesus said to her.”

¹⁵ tn Grk “he”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

¹⁶ tn Grk “I have begotten you.”

¹⁷ tn Grk “And again,” quoting another OT passage.

¹⁸ tn The words “he says” are not in the Greek text but are supplied to make a complete English sentence. In the Greek text this is a continuation of the previous sentence, but English does not normally employ such long and complex sentences.

¹⁹ tn Grk “I will be a father to him and he will be a son to me.”
