Hebrews 2:10-15

Hebrews 2:10-15 NIRV

God has made everything. He is now bringing his many sons and daughters to share in his glory. It is only right that Jesus is the one to lead them into their salvation. That’s because God made him perfect by his sufferings. And Jesus, who makes people holy, and the people he makes holy belong to the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them his brothers and sisters. He says, “I will announce your name to my brothers and sisters. I will sing your praises among those who worship you.” Again he says, “I will put my trust in him.” And again he says, “Here I am. Here are the children God has given me.” Those children have bodies made out of flesh and blood. So Jesus became human like them in order to die for them. By doing this, he could break the power of the devil. The devil is the one who rules over the kingdom of death. Jesus could set people free who were afraid of death. All their lives they were held as slaves by that fear.
