Hebreos 2:10 Meaning and Commentary

Hebrews 2:10

For it became him, for whom are all things
This is not a periphrasis of Christ, who died, but of God the Father, who delivered him to death; and who is the final cause of all things, in nature, and in grace, all things being made for his pleasure and for his glory; and he is the efficient cause of all things, as follows:

and by whom are all things;
all the works of creation, providence, and grace:

in bringing many sons to glory;
not to worldly glory, but to the heavenly glory, which they are undeserving of; and which was long ago prepared for them; is at present hid; is weighty, solid, durable, yea, eternal: the persons whom God, of his rich grace, brings to this, are "sons"; who are predestinated to the adoption of children; are regenerated by the Spirit of God; believe in Christ; and have the spirit of adoption given them, and so being children, are heirs of glory: and these are "many"; for though they are but few, when compared with others, yet they are many, considered by themselves; they are many that God has ordained to eternal life, and given to Christ, and for whom he has given himself a ransom, and whom he justifies; and accordingly there are many mansions of glory provided for them in their Father's house, whose act it is to bring them thither: he has chosen them to this glory, and prepared it for them; he sent his Son to redeem them; he reveals his Son in them, the hope of glory; he calls them to his eternal glory, and makes them meet for it, and gives them an abundant entrance into it: and

him it became--to make the Captain of their salvation perfect
through sufferings;
Christ is "the Captain of salvation", and is so called, because he is the author of it; and he is the Prince and Commander of these sons, who are committed to his charge, and are under his care; and is their guide and leader; and who is gone before them to prepare their mansions of glory for them: and he is made "perfect through sufferings"; he suffered all that the law and justice of God could require; and hereby he became perfectly acquainted with the sufferings of his people, and a perfect Saviour of them; and in this way went to glory himself: and it "became" God the Father, the first cause, and last end of all things, since he had a design to bring all his adopted sons to glory, that his own Son should perfectly suffer for them; this was agreeable to, and becoming the perfections of his nature, his wisdom, his veracity, his justice, grace, and mercy.

Hebreos 2:10 In-Context

8 Le diste autoridad sobre todas las cosas»
.
Ahora bien, cuando dice «todas las cosas», significa que nada queda afuera; pero todavía no vemos que todas las cosas sean puestas bajo su autoridad.

9 No obstante, lo que sí vemos es a Jesús, a quien se le dio una posición «un poco menor que los ángeles»; y debido a que sufrió la muerte por nosotros, ahora está «coronado de gloria y honor». Efectivamente, por la gracia de Dios, Jesús conoció la muerte por todos.

10 Dios —para quien y por medio de quien todo fue hecho— eligió llevar a muchos hijos a la gloria. Convenía a Dios que, mediante el sufrimiento, hiciera a Jesús un líder perfecto, apto para llevarlos a la salvación.

11 Por lo tanto, Jesús y los que él hace santos tienen el mismo Padre. Por esa razón, Jesús no se avergüenza de llamarlos sus hermanos,

12 pues le dijo a Dios:
«Anunciaré tu nombre a mis hermanos.
Entre tu pueblo reunido te alabaré»
.
