14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; |
15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. |
16 For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham. |
17 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. |
18 For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted. |
