Hebrews 2:16


Hebrews 2:15 Hebrews 2:16 (KJV) Hebrews 2:17
And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
For verily he took not on [him the nature of] angels; but he took on [him] the seed of Abraham.
Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto [his] brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things [pertaining] to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.
