Being made so much better than the angels, as He hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. |
having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. |
having become as much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent name than they. |
So He became as superior to the angels as the name He has inherited is superior to theirs. |
[Taking a place and rank by which] He Himself became as much superior to angels as the glorious Name (title) which He has inherited is different from and more excellent than theirs. |
having become by so much superior to the angels as He has inherited a more excellent name than they. |
thus proving Himself, by the more glorious name that He had been given, far greater than all the angels of God. |
thus proving Himself to be as much superior to angels as the title He has inherited is superior to theirs. |
