\v 13 When God promised to do great things for Abraham, there was no one greater than himself by whom he could swear, so he called himself to be his own witness.
From Bob Johnson.
\v 11 Jesus—the one who sets his people apart for God—and those same people whom he sets apart for God are from the same source, God himself. So Jesus is not embarrassed to proclaim them to be his own brothers and sisters.
From Bob Johnson
\v 9 You have loved people's righteous deeds and you have hated people's sinful deeds.
\q So God, your God, has caused you to be more joyful than anyone else.
Thanks to Bob Johnson
\v 3 God's Son is the light of God's powerful brilliance. He shows exactly what God is truly like. All things that exist—he keeps them existing by giving powerful commands. After he had acted so that God could forgive our sins, he rose into heaven and sat down at the highest place of honor, at the right side of God the Father, where he rules with him.
