Hebrews 1:12

OLBGrk;

And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up: peribolaion is an upper garment, cloak, or coat, which a man puts on or casts off at his pleasure; when it is of no more use it is folded up and laid by: so the great gospel Minister, God the Son incarnate, shall roll up the natural heavens when useless, and lay them by. And they shall be changed; by him they shall be altered, and made more glorious by new modelling them, changing of them into a better state, Isaiah 34:4, Isaiah 65:17 66:22: compare 2 Peter 3:10. But thou art the same: the identity of this Person is opposed to the changeableness of excellent creatures, and showeth him to be what he is here entitled, Jehovah, Hebrews 13:8. His assumption of the humanity to his person made no alteration in him, being still the same most excellent person as ever, Zechariah 3:1,6 1 Corinthians 12:5. And thy years shall not fail; as the being of God the Son is not measured nor terminated by years or time, so, in respect of his humanity, the years which were the measure of it shall never fail; for being raised from the dead, he shall die no more, but abideth for ever, 1 Thessalonians 12:34, and ruleth, as foretold, Luke 1:33 1 Peter 4:11. How transcendently excellent is He, who is immutable and eternal, for state and name above angels!
