1. Long ago God spoke to the fathers by the prophets at different times and in different ways.
2. In these last days, He has spoken to us by His Son. God has appointed Him heir of all things and made the universe through Him.
3. The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact expression of His nature, sustaining all things by His powerful word. After making purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
4. So He became higher in rank than the angels, just as the name He inherited is superior to theirs.
5. For to which of the angels did He ever say, You are My Son; today I have become Your Father, or again, I will be His Father, and He will be My Son?
6. When He again brings His firstborn into the world, He says, And all God’s angels must worship Him.
7. And about the angels He says:He makes His angels winds, and His servants a fiery flame,
8. but to the Son:Your throne, God,is forever and ever,and the scepter of Your kingdomis a scepter of justice.
