Hebrews 2:16-18

16For clearly He does not 1give help to angels, but He gives help to the 2descendants of Abraham.

17Therefore, in all things He 3had 4to be made like His brothers so that He might 5become a merciful and faithful 6high priest in 7things pertaining to God, to 8make 9propitiation for the sins of the people.

18For since He Himself was 1011tempted in that which He has suffered, He is able to come to the aid of those who are 12tempted.
