He is the reflection of God's glory and the exact likeness of his being, and he holds everything together by his powerful word. After he had provided a cleansing from sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Highest Majesty

because both the one who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified all have the same Father. That is why Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers

Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.

In the same way, the Messiah did not take upon himself the glory of being a high priest. No, it was God who said to him, "You are my Son. Today I have become your Father."

However, if it continues to produce thorns and thistles, it is worthless and in danger of being cursed, and in the end will be burned.

Then, instead of being lazy, you will imitate those who are inheriting the promises through faith and patience.

This illustration for today indicates that the gifts and sacrifices being offered could not clear the conscience of a worshiper,

For the Law, being only a reflection of the blessings to come and not their substance, can never make perfect those who come near by the same sacrifices repeatedly offered year after year.

For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.

because he preferred being mistreated with God's people to enjoying the pleasures of sin for a short time.

He thought that being insulted for the sake of the Messiah was of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.

By faith he left Egypt, without being afraid of the king's anger, and he persevered because he saw the one who is invisible.

Stop neglecting to show hospitality to strangers, for by showing hospitality some have had angels as their guests without being aware of it.

Stop being carried away by all kinds of unusual teachings, for it is good that the heart be strengthened by grace, not by food laws that have never helped those who follow them.
