¹ IN many ways, and many forms, God anciently conversed with our fathers, by the prophets:² But in these latter days, he hath conversed with us, by his Son; whom he hath constituted heir of all things, and by whom he made the worlds;³ who is the splendor of his glory, and the image of himself, and upholdeth all by the energy of his word; and by himself he made a purgation of sins, and sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.

⁴ And he is altogether superior to the angels, as he hath also inherited a name which excelleth theirs.⁵ For to which of the angels did God ever say, Thou art my SON, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?⁶ And again, when bringing the first begotten into the world, he said: Let all the angels of God worship him.⁷ But of the angels he thus said: Who made his angels a wind, and his ministers a flaming fire.⁸ But of the Son he said: Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; a righteous sceptre is the sceptre of thy kingdom.⁹ Thou hast loved rectitude, and hated iniquity; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness more than thy associates.¹⁰ And again, Thou hast from the beginning laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of thy hands:¹¹ they will pass away, but thou endurest; and they all, like a robe, wax old;¹² and like a cloak, thou wilt fold them up. They will be changed; but thou wilt be as thou art, and thy years will not be finished.¹³ And to which of the angels did he ever say: Sit thou at my right hand, until I shall place thy enemies a footstool under thy feet?¹⁴ Are they not all spirits of ministration, who are sent to minister on account of them that are to inherit life?
