¹tn Grk “until blood.”

²tn Grk “which God commanded for you (or in your case).”

³tn Grk “in Isaac seed will be named for you.”

⁴tn Grk “his abuse.”

⁵sn The Greek correlative conjunctions μέν and δέ (men and de) emphasize the contrastive parallelism of vs. 7 (what God says about the angels) over against vv. 8-9 and vv. 10-12 (what God says about the son).

⁶tn Grk “He who makes.”

⁷sn A quotation from Ps 104:4.

⁶tn Or “to.”

⁷tn The verb “he says” (λέγει, legei) is implied from the λέγει of v. 7.

⁸tn Or possibly, “Your throne is God forever and ever.” This translation is quite doubtful, however, since (1) in the context the Son is being contrasted to the angels and is presented as far better than they. The imagery of God being the Son’s throne would seem to be of God being his authority. If so, in what sense could this not be said of the angels? In what sense is the Son thus contrasted with the angels? (2) The μέν…δέ (men…de) construction that connects v. 7 with v. 8 clearly lays out this contrast: “On the one hand, he says of the angels…on the other hand, he says of the Son.” Thus, although it is grammatically possible that θεός (qeos) in v. 8 should be taken as a predicate nominative, the context and the correlative conjunctions are decidedly against it. Hebrews 1:8 is thus a strong affirmation of the deity of Christ.

⁹tn Grk “the righteous scepter,” but used generically.

⁷sn The parallel phrases to which of the angels in vv. 5 and 13 show the unity of this series of quotations (vv. 5-14) in revealing the superiority of the Son over angels (v. 4).

⁸sn A quotation from Ps 110:1.

⁸tn Grk “him”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁹tn Grk “from among men,” but since the point in context is shared humanity (rather than shared maleness), the plural Greek term ἀνθρώπων (anqrwpwn) has been translated “people.”

¹⁰tn Grk “who is taken from among people is appointed.”

¹¹tn Grk “appointed on behalf of people in reference to things relating to God.”

¹⁰tn Grk “the one”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

¹¹tn Grk “I have begotten you”; see Heb 1:5.

¹¹tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

¹²tn The words “did so” are not in the Greek text, but are implied.

¹³sn A quotation from Ps 110:4 (see Heb 5:6, 6:20, and 7:17).

¹²tn Grk “for the purifying of the flesh.” The “flesh” here is symbolic of outward or ritual purity in contrast to inner purity, that of the conscience (cf. Heb 9:9).

¹³tn Grk “all discipline at the time does not seem to be of joy, but of sorrow.”

¹⁴tn Grk “the peaceful fruit of righteousness.”

¹⁴tn Or “he was obligated.”

¹⁵tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 2:11.

¹⁶tn Or “propitiation.”

¹⁵tn Grk “in the days of his flesh.”

¹⁶tn Grk “he”; the referent (Christ) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

¹⁷tn Grk “who…having offered,” continuing the description of Christ from Heb 5:5-6.

¹⁶tn Grk “putting…I will inscribe.”

¹⁷sn A quotation from Jer 31:33.
