SUMMARY OF CHAPTER TWO
This chapter is the logical conclusion of the thought of God's final message which is presented in Chapter One, Since God has spoken in His Son, we ought to heed the message. Two reasons are given to show why we should pay attention to it.
First, disobedience to the Word spoken through angels was punished. That being so, how could one who disregarded the Word spoken through the Lord hope to escape punishment? Second, the Christian age is under the dominion of the Son, not angels. A quotation from the eighth Psalm, which tells of the dominion over creation which God gave to Adam, is applied to Jesus in support of this claim.
Jesus became identified with man through His suffering, that He might taste death for all and be able to call them brethren whom He saved, In His death, He destroyed the power of the devil and brought freedom to those in bondage to sin. He was made like His brethren and became for them a faithful High Priest, providing a covering for the sins of the people.
