1 On many occasions and in many ways in past times Yahweh had spoken to the fathers by the prophets.2 At the end of these days He speaks to us by a Son, whom He has appointed heir of all, through whom He also made the ages.3 Who being the radiance of the honor and the express image of His substance, and bearing all things in the word of His power, bringing about a purification of errors has sat at the right hand of the majesty in the heights.4 Becoming so much better than the messengers, He has inherited a name so much more distinguished beyond them.5 To which of the messengers did He ever say: "You are My Son, today I have engendered You"? And again: "I will be a Father to Him, and He will be a Son to Me"?6 Then again, when He introduces the First Born into the inhabited world He says: "and all messengers of Yahweh must worship Him."7 And then to the messengers He says: "He is making His messengers Spirits, and His servants a flame of fire."8 But in reference to the Son: "Your throne, O Yahweh, is for eternity." And: "a scepter of rectitude is the scepter of Your Kingdom.9 You have loved righteousness, and have hated lawlessness. For this reason Yahweh Your God has anointed You with an oil of exultation beyond Your companions."10 And: "You, in the beginning, Yahweh, have laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the works of Your hands.11 They shall perish, yet You will remain, and they will all grow old as a garment,12 and just as a cloak You will roll them, as a garment, and they will be changed, but You are the same and Your years will not fail."13 Now has He ever said to any of the messengers: "Sit at My right hand, until when I would set Your enemies as a footstool for Your feet"?14 Are they not all Spirits of service, being sent forth for a ministry for the sake of those being about to inherit salvation?
