Hebrews 2:14-18 Since then the children referred to are all alike sharers in perishable human nature, He Himself also, in the same way, took on Him a share of it, in order that through death He might render powerless him who had authority over death, that is, the Devil,

WNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁴ Since then the children referred to are all alike sharers in perishable human nature, He Himself also, in the same way, took on Him a share of it, in order that through death He might render powerless him who had authority over death, that is, the Devil, ¹⁵ and might set at liberty all those who through fear of death had been subject to lifelong slavery. ¹⁶ For assuredly it is not to angels that He is continually reaching a helping hand, but it is to the descendants of Abraham. ¹⁷ And for this purpose it was necessary that in all respects He should be made to resemble His brothers, so that He might become a compassionate and faithful High Priest in things relating to God, in order to atone for the sins of the people. ¹⁸ For inasmuch as He has Himself felt the pain of temptation and trial, He is also able instantly to help those who are tempted and tried.
