Hebrews 1:9

1:9 You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness.

So God, your God, has anointed you over your companions ¹  with the oil of rejoicing.” ² 

Hebrews 2:7

2:7 You made him lower than the angels for a little while.

You crowned him with glory and honor. ³ 

Hebrews 3:3

3:3 For he has come to deserve greater glory than Moses, just as the builder of a house deserves greater honor than the house itself!

Hebrews 9:23

9:23 So it was necessary for the sketches ⁴  of the things in heaven to be purified with these sacrifices, ⁵  but the heavenly things themselves required ⁶  better sacrifices than these.

Hebrews 11:11

11:11 By faith, even though Sarah herself was barren and he was too old, ⁷  he received the ability to procreate, ⁸  because he regarded the one who had given the promise to be trustworthy.

[1:9]  ¹ sn God…has anointed you over your companions. God’s anointing gives the son a superior position and authority over his fellows.

[1:9]  ² sn A quotation from Ps 45:6-7.

[2:7]  ³ tc Several witnesses, many of them early and important (א A C D* P Ψ 0243 0278 33 1739 1881 al lat co), have at the end of v 7, “You have given him dominion over the works of your hands.” Other mss, not quite as impressive in weight, lack the words (Ì⁴⁶ B D² Ï). In spite of the impressive external evidence for the longer reading, it is most likely a scribal addition to conform the text of Hebrews to Ps 8:6 (8:7 LXX). Conformity of a NT quotation of the OT to the LXX was a routine scribal activity, and can hardly be in doubt here as to the cause of the longer reading.

[9:23]  ⁵ tn Or “prototypes,” “outlines,” referring to the earthly sanctuary. See Heb 8:5 above for the prior use of this term.

[9:23]  ⁶ tn Grk “with these”; in the translation the referent (sacrifices) has been specified for clarity.

[9:23]  ⁷ tn Grk “the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.”

[11:11]  ⁷ tn Grk “past the time of maturity.”

[11:11]  ⁸ tn Grk “power to deposit seed.” Though it is not as likely, some construe this phrase to mean “power to conceive seed,” making the whole verse about Sarah: “by faith, even though Sarah herself was barren and too old, she received ability to conceive, because she regarded the one who had given the promise to be trustworthy.”
