He is literally the spoken word of the Father that became flesh and dwelt among us. Nothing more. Nothing less. Paul starts by telling us that Elohim has spoken in time past through the prophets, but has recently spoken to us in these last days in His Son. The term "last days" is a reference to the time between the first arrival of Messiah to the time of His return and beyond. We are in the "last days" spoken of in Scripture. He also created all things through His Son. Heb 1:3 And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high; Yeshua is the brightness of His Father's glory. John 14:9-10 Jesus said to him, “Have I been so long with you, and yet you have not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how do you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10“Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on My own initiative, but the Father abiding in Me does His works. He is the express image of His person (essence) Col. 1:15-16 And He is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of all creation. 16For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created by Him and for Him. Yeshua upholds all things because He is the Word of His Father's power. Col. 1:17-18 And He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. 18He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the first-born from the dead; so that He Himself might come to have first place in everything. He purged our sins. 1 John 1:7 but if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. and sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high. Col. 3:1 If then you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. What does it mean that He sat down at the right hand of the Father? The right hand of the Father is symbolic of His power and righteousness. Ex. 15:6 “Thy right hand, O LORD, is majestic in power, Thy right hand, O LORD, shatters the enemy. Psalm. 44:3 For by their own sword they did not possess the land; And their own arm did not save them; But Thy right hand, and Thine arm, and the light of Thy presence, For Thou didst favor them. Psalm 48:10 As is Thy name, O God, So is Thy praise to the ends of the earth; Thy right hand is full of righteousness. But why is Yeshua now sitting at the right hand of the Father? He is to sit there until He makes His enemies His footstool. Psalm 110:1 The LORD says to my Lord: “Sit at My right hand, Until I make Thine enemies a footstool for Thy feet.” There He waits until that day. Heb 2:2 For if the word spoken through angels proved unalterable, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense, The "word spoken through angels" is the Torah of Elohim. We are told this by both Stephen and Paul. Acts 7:53 you who received the law as ordained by angels, and yet did not keep it.” Gal. 3:19 Why the Law then? It was added because of transgressions, having been ordained through angels by the agency of a mediator, until the seed should come to whom the promise had been made. Every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense. Torah is just in it's judgments, regardless of what Christianity teaches today. The next verse asks a rhetorical question. Heb 2:3 how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation? After it was at the first spoken through the Lord, it was confirmed to us by those who heard, This passage is better understood in conjunction with verse 2. "How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation?" If we neglect so great a salvation, there is no escape. We will perish because the judgments in the Torah condemn us since we have all sinned at one time or another. This message of salvation through Yeshua was spoken of by Yeshua Himself. Mark 1:14-15 Matt. 4:17 Luke 19:10 “For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.” And was confirmed by those who heard Him. Acts 3:19-21 Acts 17:30-31 The book of Hebrews makes several statements that sound like warnings. In this chapter he tells us to pay much closer attention to what we have heard or else we might drift from it. Messiah was not merely an angel or merely a man. He is the Word of Yahweh made flesh and dwelt among us. River Valley Torah Assembly
