9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.



Ver. 9. But we see Jesus] The saints hold all in cupite tenure in Christ. Now in him all things are already subjected unto us, and made serviceable to our salvation.



For the, suffering of death] Or that he might be in a condition to suffer death, this Sun of righteousness went ten degrees backward, not only below his Father, Joh_14:28, but below the angels; for man (as man) is inferior to the angels.



Taste death for every man] i. e. For every such man as must be led unto glory, Heb_2:10; as is of Christ’s brethren, Heb_2:11; as is given of God to Christ, Heb_2:13; and for none other.
