Hebrews 2:14

Read in context

Hebrews 2:12–16 · Berean Standard Bible

12 He says: “I will proclaim Your name to My brothers; I will sing Your praises in the assembly.”

13 And again: “I will put My trust in Him.” And once again: “Here am I, and the children God has given Me.”

14 Now since the children have flesh and blood, He too shared in their humanity, so that by His death He might destroy him who holds the power of death, that is, the devil,

15 and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death.

16 For surely it is not the angels He helps, but the descendants of Abraham.
