Hebrews 1:10

1:10 And,

“You founded the earth in the beginning, Lord, ¹ 

and the heavens are the works of your hands.

Hebrews 7:14

7:14 For it is clear that our Lord is descended from Judah, yet Moses said nothing about priests in connection with that tribe.

Hebrews 8:2

8:2 a minister in the sanctuary and the true tabernacle that the Lord, not man, set up.

Hebrews 12:14

Do Not Reject God’s Warning

12:14 Pursue peace with everyone, and holiness, ²  for without it no one will see the Lord.

Hebrews 13:6

13:6 So we can say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper, and ³  I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?” ⁴ 

[1:10]  ¹ sn You founded the earth…your years will never run out. In its original setting Ps 102:25-27 refers to the work of God in creation, but here in Hebrews 1:10-12 the writer employs it in reference to Christ, the Lord, making a strong argument for the essential deity of the Son.

[12:14]  ² sn The references to peace and holiness show the close connection between this paragraph and the previous one. The pathway toward “holiness” and the need for it is cited in Heb 12:10 and 14. More importantly Prov 4:26-27 sets up the transition from one paragraph to the next: It urges people to stay on godly paths (Prov 4:26, quoted here in v. 13) and promises that God will lead them in peace if they do so (Prov 4:27 [LXX], quoted in v. 14).

[13:6]  ³ tc Some important mss (א* C* P 0285^vid 33 1175 1739 pc lat) lack καί (kai), but because the omission conforms to the wording of Ps 118:6 (117:6 LXX), it is suspect.

[13:6]  ⁴ sn A quotation from Ps 118:6.
