Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁴ Seeing therefore the children have received a fellowship of blood and flesh, he also, in like manner, took partnership in the same,––in order that, through death,––he might paralyse him that held the dominion of death, that is, the Adversary,–– ¹⁵ And might release these––as many as, by fear of death, were all their lifetime liable, to bondage. ¹⁶ For, not surely of messengers, is he laying hold, but, of Abraham’s seed, he is laying hold. ¹⁷ Whence he was obliged, in every way, unto the brethren, to be made like, that he might become a merciful and faithful high–priest, in the things pertaining unto God,––for the making of propitiation for the sins of the people.
