1. Refer to “Epistle to the Hebrews” in the Bible Dictionary (pp. 746–47). Read the first paragraph and the “Analysis of Hebrews,” number 1–5. Make a list of what Jesus Christ is superior to.
- Greater than the Angels
- Greater than Moses
- Jesus words are more important that Moses’s
- Greater than the high priests of Moses
- Greater than the order of Aaron (because he is of the order of Melchizedek)
2. Read Hebrews 1. Make a list of three truths Paul taught about the Savior Jesus Christ.
- 1:2 “Heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;”
- 1:3 “He had by himself purged our sins”
- 1:4 “1:4 “Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they”
3. Read Hebrews 2:7–18; 4:13–16; Alma 7:11–15; Doctrine and Covenants 122:8. In writing describe how these scriptures explain reasons the Son of God came to earth to experience mortality.
These scriptures all mention that Christ came to earth to experience mortality so that he could know and understand the trials and pains that we have gone through. He came to not only provide a way to save us, but to be able to comfort and aid us in our circumstances.
