Hebrews 2:7 (KJV)
Commentary on Hebrews 2:7
The phrase 'made him a little lower than the angels' can also be translated 'for a little while lower than the angels,' referring to Christ's incarnation. The crowning with 'glory and honor' (Greek 'doxē kai timē') points to Christ's exaltation after His humiliation. This demonstrates the Reformed principle that Christ's work involves both humiliation (incarnation, suffering, death) and exaltation (resurrection, ascension, session), securing full salvation.
