5. God did not choose angels to be the rulers over the new world that was coming. That future world is the world we have been talking about.
6. It is written some place in the Scriptures, “Why are people so important to you? Why do you even think about them? Why do you care about the son of man? Is he so important?
7. For a short time you made him lower than the angels. You crowned him with glory and honor.
8. You put everything under his control.” Psalm 8:4-6 If God put everything under his control, then there was nothing left that he did not rule. But we don’t yet see him ruling over everything.
9. For a short time Jesus was made lower than the angels, but now we see him wearing a crown of glory and honor because he suffered and died. Because of God’s grace, Jesus died for everyone.
10. God—the one who made all things and for whose glory all things exist—wanted many people to be his children and share his glory. So he did what he needed to do. He made perfect the one who leads those people to salvation. He made Jesus a perfect Savior through his suffering.
11. Jesus, the one who makes people holy, and those who are made holy are from the same family. So he is not ashamed to call them his brothers and sisters.
