(Heb 1:4) “Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.”   We have no record indicating angels have possessions. Satan laid claim to (Luk 4:5)  “…all the kingdoms of the world…(6) …All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me;…”  No, upon the resurrection of our Lord Jesus, the inheritance of “all things” became His – including the angels themselves (Col 1:14-16)!

(Heb 1:4) “Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.”  Jesus’ inheritance came about not through the death of His Father; but through His Own death. Remember Verse 2, “…. whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;”.  Uncommon to our thoughts, the great mind of God proclaims, “You made it. It is Yours. You will become man, (Jn 1:10 “ He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.”,  be rejected and killed by man (v.11 “… his own received him not.), and rise again as Heir!

(Heb 1:3) “Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;”    To “sit” on the right hand of a monarch was recognized as the place of the greatest of honor. This is why James and John was requesting it for themselves (Mk 10:36-40). Jesus sits rightly in the most honorable place for He, the Savior, is worthy!

 (Heb 1:3) “Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;”   Notice the emphasis upon the fact that it was He, Jesus only, “by Himself”, Who purged our sins. Remember, on the cross our sins broke the fellowship of God for six long hours – alone (Matt 27:46).

(Heb 1:3) “Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;”    “Upholding”: carrying the load which is fully explained in Col 1:14 “In whom we have redemption through his blood,… (15) Who is the image of the invisible God,… (16) For by him were all things created,…(17) And he is before all things, and by him all things consist (literally held together; upholding). 

 (Heb 1:3) “Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;”    When it says “the express image of His person…”, it is referring to one so molded as a duplicate of the other. One cannot find fault or distortion between the Person of Christ and the rest of the Godhead. SEE  2 Cor 4:6  

(Heb 1:3) “Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;”   The glory seen at Mount Horeb and in the Temple was as smoke from a dark fire (Heb 12:18-21; 1 Kgs 8:12). God’s true glory shown to Moses made His face to shine the rest of his life (Ex 34-35). That glory was seen in Jesus at the Mount of Transfiguration (Matt 17:2).  

(Heb 1:2) “Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;”   “I and the Father are one” (Jn 10:30). God now dwells and speaks through the man, Jesus. At the mount He spoke and Israel asked Him to stop, but instead speak through a man. He agreed and promised another in Moses’ place fulfilling that in Jesus (Duet 18:15).

(Heb 1:2) “Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;”   He made the worlds – plural; what is visible and invisible (Col 1:16). Through His death in our place (New Testament), He rose again the heir of that same will, now to share it to the saved “in” Him! Glory!

(Heb 1:1) “God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,” “Divers manners” means “various ways”.  For example, God spoke in an audible voice as well as through men and even an animal (Balaam’s donkey), as well as through various angels.
