Jesus was made for a little while lower than the angels (2:9); not ashamed to call us brother and sister (2:11); shared with us flesh and blood (2:14); is able to
sympathize with our weaknesses, having been tested as we are, yet without sin, and therefore able to offer mercy and grace in time of need (4:14 - 16).
For we do not have a high priest who is unable to
sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.
We have a Savior who has given us eternal life, and in the here and now,
he sympathizes with our weaknesses (Heb.
Hebrews tells us this: «For we do not have a high priest who is unable to
sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tested in every way as we are, yet without sin.
I hope that in their weakness, they will encounter the savior who can «
sympathize with our weakness,» who «in every respect has been tempted as we are.»
«We have not a high priest who is unable to
sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sinning» (4:15).
