Hebrews 2:5-9

I. All things have been subjected to the Son.
-II Tim. 2:12, Rev. 20:4, 6, I Cor. 6:3
a. The angels are not given rule of the age to come.
-subject = hupotasso = subordinate, be subject to one's authority, submit to
-Dan. 10:20-21
-world = oikoumene = inhabited world
b. There is nothing that fails to be subjected to the Son.
-testified = diamarturomai = solemnly declare/testify
-concerned = episkeptomai = to care for, visit, watch over
-left nothing = aphiemi = leave out, omit, cancel out, remit
c. In this age we don't see that subjection fully realized.

II. The Exalted Son was humbled for our sake.
a. He took a lower rank becoming human.
-George Guthrie "To 'see Jesus', therefore, does not mean a physical perception, but rather a spiritual perception, recognizing both the witness of his earthly endurance and his present exalted position."
-made lower = elatoo = to take a lower rank, make less
b. He suffered death for all.
-tasted = geuomai = taste, eat, experience; "experience to the full"
c. He is crowned with glory.
