I have read various chapter in Hebrews a lot recently in my attempt to make a study of the entire book. I get stuck repeatedly in chapter one - not a bad thing but not getting me further into the whole book either. The verse that hits me - in a good way is verse 3. Every. Single. Time.
"He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,"
Just picture that. Jesus is the RADIANCE of the glory of God. I mean come on, that is just so cool to think about how radiance has a face and a name. It's Jesus. The imagery in that one verse leaves me awestruck and wondering. I have no idea how to imagine something like that. But I want to, and that's part of the mystery and wonder of God.
