Heb. 1:5. For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father and he shall be to me a Son?

The sermon-lecture on this text is entitled, "Christ is a person of transcendent worthiness in the sight of God." Edwards discusses "On what account Christ is such a person" (because of what he is and what he has done).

Heb. 1:6-8
