1 The Bible Speaks to our Condition
A Look at Heb 1

2 The Hebrew letter is written to those who are recent converts from Judaism
In Judaism they had thought of the prophets and angels as mediums through whom the message of God was communicated to people (vs 1, 4) The writer demonstrates throughout the entire book that Christ is superior to the prophets, the angels, the Mosaic law, and the Levitical priesthood The writer encourages the converts to look and listen to Jesus Christ as God’s authentic and supreme messenger to the hearts of people Introduction

3 How God Speaks (vs 1-2) In times past (vs 1) Today (vs 2)
To the fathers by the prophets Today (vs 2) By His Son How God Speaks (vs 1-2)

4 Seven things that describe Christ (vs 2-3)
Appointed by God heir of all things (vs 2b) Through Him God made the worlds (vs 2c) He is the brightness of God’s glory (vs 3a) The express image of His (God’s) person (vs 3a) He upholds all things by the word of His power (vs 3b) He purged our sins (vs 3c) He is now seated at the right hand of the Majesty on high (vs 3d) Seven things that describe Christ (vs 2-3)

5 Christ so much better than the angels (vs 4-14)
He is the son, angels are not (vs 5) He is the “Firstborn” who is to be worshipped by the angels (vs 6a) He is “God” enthroned and anointed, angels are servants (8-9) He is “Lord” who in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth and is eternal (vs 10-11) He is seated at the right hand of God, angels are ministering spirits (vs 13-14) Christ so much better than the angels (vs 4-14)
