Hebrews 2:6-9 The Greatness and Glory of Jesus

6 But there is a place where someone has testified:
“What is man that you are mindful of him,
the son of man that you care for him?

7 You made him a little lower than the angels;
you crowned him with glory and honor

8 and put everything under his feet.”
In putting everything under him, God left nothing that is not subject to him. Yet at present we do not see everything subject to him.

9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
