Hebrews 1:3-5

Christian Standard Bible

³The Son is the radiance^[a] of God’s glory and the exact expression^[b] of his nature,^(A) sustaining all things by his powerful word.^(B) After making purification for sins,^[c] he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.^[d]^(C) ⁴So he became superior to the angels, just as the name he inherited is more excellent than theirs.^(D)

The Son Superior to Angels

⁵For to which of the angels did he ever say,

You are my Son;
today I have become your Father,^[e]^[f]

or again,

I will be his Father,
and he will be my Son?^[g]^(E)
