Hebrews 1 begins with an explanation of who Jesus is and His position over the angels. Paul teaches us that Jesus is the “exact representation” of God’s being, through whom the universe was created. God declares Jesus to be the heir of all things and is the radiance of all God’s glory, “sustaining all things by His powerful word”. Jesus is “much superior to the angels” and sits in power at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. Paul concludes Hebrews 1 with a quote from Psalm 102, reminding us that Jesus is unchanging and will reign for eternity.
