For to which of the angels did He ever say, You are My Son; today I have become Your Father, or again, I will be His Father, and He will be My Son?

When He again brings His firstborn into the world, He says, And all God’s angels must worship Him.

And about the angels He says:

He makes His angels winds,
and His servants a fiery flame,

Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says:

Today, if you hear His voice,

Again, in that passage He says, They will never enter My rest.

We have a great deal to say about this, and it’s difficult to explain, since you have become too lazy to understand.

But finding fault with His people, He says:

Look, the days are coming, says the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant
with the house of Israel
and with the house of Judah—

not like the covenant
that I made with their ancestors
on the day I took them by their hands
to lead them out of the land of Egypt.
I disregarded them, says the Lord,
because they did not continue in My covenant.

But this is the covenant
that I will make with the house of Israel
after those days, says the Lord:
I will put My laws into their minds
and write them on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be My people.

After He says above, You did not want or delight in sacrifices and offerings, whole burnt offerings and sin offerings (which are offered according to the law),

He then says, See, I have come to do Your will. He takes away the first to establish the second.

This is the covenant I will make with them
after those days, says the Lord:
I will put My laws on their hearts
and write them on their minds,

Now those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a homeland.

And what more can I say? Time is too short for me to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets,

to Jesus (mediator of a new covenant), and to the sprinkled blood, which says better things than the blood of Abel.

Therefore, we may boldly say:

The Lord is my helper;
I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?
