Ministry on This Verse

 As God was not ashamed to be called the God of the fathers, so Christ is not ashamed (I say not to be called Brother but) to call us, the children, brethren. It is His relationship which He nowhere extends to man as he is, nor even to His own disciples though born of God, till He rose from the dead. (Hebrews 2:10-15 by W. Kelly)
 He never says “our” Father with the disciples. He tells them to say “our,” but says “my and your,” and it is much more precious. (Hebrews 2 by J.N. Darby)
 {v.12-13} Three quotations from the Old Testament are given to prove how blessedly the Sanctifier is identified as one with the sanctified—His brethren. {Psa. 22:22; Isa. 8:17 Septuagint; Isa. 8:18} (The Glory of the Son of Man: Hebrews 2:5-18 by H. Smith)
