Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Hebrews 1:10
And, Thou, Lord in the beginning didst lay the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the works of thy hands: They shall perish; but thou continuest: And they all shall wax old as doth a garment; And as a mantle shalt thou roll them up, As a garment, and they shall be changed: But thou art the same, And thy years shall not fail.This quotation is from Psalms 102:25-27; and the great significance of its use here is in the fact that words originally addressed to Jehovah are unhesitatingly... read more

Hebrews 1:11-12. They shall perish, &c.— "They, permanent as they seem, shall at length wear out; but thou endurest in undecaying glory; yea, all of them shall grow old as doth a garment; and thou shalt remove them out of their place, and introduce a new scene of things, with as much ease as a prince lays aside one robe, and puts on another; but thou art ever the same, and thy years shall not fail through everlasting ages, nor can thy perfections admit of any possible diminution." How... read more

10. And—In another passage ( :-) He says. in the beginning—English Version, Psalms 102:25, "of old": Hebrew, "before," "aforetime." The Septuagint, "in the beginning" (as in Psalms 102:25- :) answers by contrast to the end implied in "They shall perish," &c. The Greek order here (not in the Septuagint) is, "Thou in the beginning, O Lord," which throws the "Lord" into emphasis. "Christ is preached even in passages where many might contend that the Father was principally intended" [BENGEL].... read more

11. They—The earth and the heavens in their present state and form "shall perish" (Hebrews 12:26; Hebrews 12:27; 2 Peter 3:13). "Perish" does not mean annihilation; just as it did not mean so in the case of "the world that being overflowed with water, perished" under Noah (2 Peter 3:6). The covenant of the possession of the earth was renewed with Noah and his seed on the renovated earth. So it shall be after the perishing by fire (2 Peter 3:12; 2 Peter 3:13). remainest—through (so the Greek)... read more

12. vesture—Greek, "an enwrapping cloak." fold them up—So the Septuagint, Psalms 102:26; but the Hebrew, "change them." The Spirit, by Paul, treats the Hebrew of the Old Testament, with independence of handling, presenting the divine truth in various aspects; sometimes as here sanctioning the Septuagint (compare Isaiah 34:4; Revelation 6:14); sometimes the Hebrew; sometimes varying from both. changed—as one lays aside a garment to put on another. thou art the same— (Isaiah 46:4; Malachi 3:6).... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Hebrews 1:5-14
B. The Superiority of God’s SON 1:5-14The writer proceeded to explain the exaltation of Jesus Christ to help his readers appreciate the fact that He fulfilled Old Testament prophecy concerning the Son of David. He did this so they would appreciate Him properly and not overemphasize the importance of angels. Angels were very important in Judaism primarily because multitudes of them assisted God in giving the Mosaic Law at Mount Sinai (cf. Deuteronomy 33:2; Psalms 68:17; Acts 7:53; Galatians... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Hebrews 1:5-14
Christ greater than angels (1:5-14)According to Jewish beliefs, angels were beings of a high order who fulfilled an important role in the giving of God’s law to Israel (Acts 7:53; Galatians 3:19). The writer therefore shows from the Old Testament (which the Jews believed to be the Word of God) that Jesus Christ is greater than angels. His birth into the world as a man does not mean that he is inferior to angels. On the contrary, angels worship him, for he is God, inseparably united with his... read more
