Heb 1:3 | MHM | STEP | v. 3 : The writer describes the greatness of Jesus. He is the “heir of all things,” meaning God has given him authority over everything (Psalm 2:6-7; Matthew 28:18 ; John 5:22 ). Through Jesus, God made the universe, both things seen and unseen. Jesus also sustains everything by his powerful word—he keeps the world together and rules over all creation. When sin broke the world, Jesus, through his work of redemption, restored it by his power and goodness. None of the prophets had such a role or power.
