Hebrews 2:9 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

It is done only with regard to Jesus, God — Man, who is now crowned with glory and honour — As a reward for his having suffered death. He was made a little lower than the angels — Who cannot either suffer or die. That by the grace of God, he might taste death — An expression denoting both the reality of his death, and the shortness of its continuance. For every man — That ever was or will be born into the world.

Hebrews 2:9

9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
