Hebrews 2:9

2:9 but we see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, ¹  now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, ²  so that by God’s grace he would experience ³  death on behalf of everyone.

Hebrews 10:29

10:29 How much greater punishment do you think that person deserves who has contempt for ⁴  the Son of God, and profanes ⁵  the blood of the covenant that made him holy, ⁶  and insults the Spirit of grace?

Hebrews 12:15

12:15 See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God, that no one be like a bitter root springing up ⁷  and causing trouble, and through him many become defiled.

¹ tn Or “who was made a little lower than the angels.”

² tn Grk “because of the suffering of death.”

³ tn Grk “would taste.” Here the Greek verb does not mean “sample a small amount” (as a typical English reader might infer from the word “taste”), but “experience something cognitively or emotionally; come to know something” (cf. BDAG 195 s.v. γεύομαι 2).

⁴ tn Grk “tramples under foot.”

⁵ tn Grk “regarded as common.”

⁶ tn Grk “by which he was made holy.”

⁷ tn Grk “that there not be any root of bitterness,” but referring figuratively to a person who causes trouble (as in Deut 29:17 [LXX] from which this is quoted).
