6. It is written somewhere in the Scriptures,“Why is man important to you?Why do you take care of the son of man?
7. For a short time you made him lower than the angels.But you crowned him with glory and honor.
8. You put all things under his control.” Psalm 8:4-6If God put everything under his control, there was nothing left that he did not rule. But we do not yet see him ruling over everything.
9. But we see Jesus! For a short time he 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, he died for everyone.
10. God is the One who made all things. And all things are for his glory. God wanted to have many sons share his glory. So God made perfect the One who leads people to salvation. He made Jesus a perfect Savior through Jesus’ suffering.
