¹¹ Forasmuch as he that sanctifieth, and they which are sanctified, are all of one. For which cause's sake he is not ashamed to call them brethren, ¹² saying, "I will declare thy name unto my brethren, and in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee."

¹³ And again, "I will put my trust in him." And again, "Behold here am I and the children which God hath given me."

¹⁴ Forasmuch, then, as the children were partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part with them, for to put down through death him that had lordship over death: that is to say, the devil. ¹⁵ And that he might deliver them which, through fear of death, all their life time were in danger of bondage. ¹⁶ For he in no place taketh on him the angels: but the seed of Abraham taketh he on him. ¹⁷ Wherefore in all things it became him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be merciful, and a faithful high priest in things concerning God, for to purge the people's sins. ¹⁸ For in that he himself suffered, and was tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.
