What Does Hebrews 2:13 Mean?
The writer adds two more lines of Scripture to deepen the point. In the first, Christ says, "I will put my trust in him" -- taking His place beside us as one who lives by faith in God, just as we are called to do. He is genuinely one with us in dependence on the Father.
In the second, He presents His people as a gift: "Behold I and the children which God hath given me." He stands before God surrounded by those entrusted to Him, claiming them tenderly as His own. Together these lines show a Savior who shares our trust and gathers us as His family -- bound to us in faith, and bound to us in love.
