Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 1:2

Hath in these last days; the gospel day, last, as after the days of the old world, and after the law given to Israel by Moses: the days of the fourth kingdom of the Roman empire, in the height of which Christ came into the world, and at the end of it shall accomplish his kingdom, Daniel 2:40,Daniel 2:44. The last, because the perfection of those types which went before, when Christ settled in the church that religion which must remain unalterable, to the end of the world, Hebrews 12:25-28; the... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 1:3

Who being the brightness; the same gospel minister, God’s Son, was, as to his person, απαυγασμα, a brightness shining out: which word sets forth the natural eternal generation of God the Son, discovering both the rise and flux of his being, and the beauteous and glorious excellency of it. It is the same in the sight of it with the Father’s, the brightness of glory, light of light, glory of glory to perfection, streaming from his Father incessantly; as beams issue from the sun, or the mental... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Hebrews 1:1-4

THE ESSENTIAL SUPERIORITY OF THE REVELATION IN THE SONCRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL NOTESHebrews 1:1. God.—Placed abruptly, as the first and emphatic word, in the English translation; and properly so placed, because the unity of God is the truth concerning which the Jews were so supremely jealous, and the message of this treatise could not have been received by the Jews if it had raised the faintest suspicion of sympathy with the Gnostic heresy, that the Old Testament dispensation was the work of... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 1:1-4

Hebrews 1:1-4 The Son above the Angels. I. The Son is the end of all history. The Father hath appointed the Lord Jesus Christ, His Son, the heir of all things. There is nothing excepted that is not given unto Him. He has obtained the Church as the first and central part of His inheritance. As the material sun is placed in the firmament to be a source of light and heat and joy, with the rest of the creation of God, so God appoints the Church to be the firstfruits of His creatures the body of... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 1:3-6

Hebrews 1:3-6 Christ above the Angels. I. It is very wonderful how, in God's ways, fixed necessity and liberty go hand in hand. From all eternity Jesus is appointed the Son of David; but the development of history goes through liberty, the exercise of faith, of hope, of patience, of joy, of suffering. Everything that is human is in sweetest harmony with that unfailing and unchangeable purpose of God's love which must surely come to pass. II. Humanity in the person of Messiah is exalted far... read more

DISCOURSE: 2268CHRIST’S ASCENSION TO GLORYHebrews 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.A REVELATION of God, by whatever means or instrument it may be communicated, demands our solemn attention. But Christianity requires the highest possible degree of reverence, because the Messenger, by whom it was promulgated,... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Hebrews 1:1-14

Hebrews 1:1 . God, who at sundry times and in divers manners, spake to the fathers. By the personal appearances of Christ, the Word of the Lord; by voices, by angels, by visions, by dreams, and by impulses of the Holy Ghost. In these forms we have received all the glorious doctrines of truth, and particular revelations, and that chiefly in times of ecclesiastical trouble. Hebrews 1:2 . Hath in these last days, those new and good days foretold by the prophet. Joel 2:28. That old men... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Hebrews 1:1-3

Hebrews 1:1-3God … hath … spoken … by His Son.Personal reserveThe Epistle to abruptly, like 1 John, without either greeting from the author, address to the church, or words of introduction. This omission distinguishes these two from every other epistle in the New Testament, and creates of itself a strong presumption that St. Paul was not the author. It is obviously not due to any attempt at concealment; for the tone of personal authority occasionally assumed, and the personal allusions towards... read more

Hath in these last days ] God doth his best works last (our last also should be our best, as Thyatira’s, Rev 2:19 ); the sweetest of honey lies in the bottom.
