This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
To Jesus (Iēsou). This great fact is not to be overlooked (Phi 2:10.). He is there as Lord and Saviour and still “Jesus.”
The mediator of a new covenant (diathēkēs neas mesitēi). As already shown (Heb 7:22; Heb 8:6, Heb 8:8, Heb 8:9, Heb 8:10; Heb 9:15) and now gloriously consummated.
To the blood of sprinkling (haimati rantismou). As in Heb 9:19-28.
Than Abel (para ton Abel). Accusative as in Heb 1:4.
Better (kreitton). Comparative of kalos. Abel’s blood still speaks (Heb 11:4), but it is as nothing compared to that of Jesus.
