16 So Jesus helps Abraham’s descendants rather than helping angels.
17 Therefore, he had to become like his brothers and sisters so that he could be merciful. He became like them so that he could serve as a faithful chief priest in God’s presence and make peace with God for their sins.
18 Because Jesus experienced temptation when he suffered, he is able to help others when they are tempted.
