NT Text: Hebrews 1:7
OT Source(s):
Source: Treasury of Scripture Knowledge
Reference Type: Direct Quotation
Connection Method(s): Contrast
Significance: Contrasts mutable, servant nature of angels (who are "made") with immutable, ruling nature of the Son. Angels are changeable servants functioning at God's command; the Son is eternal ruler. The use of "makes" (poieō) emphasizes angels are creatures subject to change, setting up the contrast with the Son's unchanging divine nature in verses 8-12.
