V. 8.— Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered. Though he were a Son, yet learned he... He was the Son of God, the object of the worship and adoration of the angels of God, the Creator of the ends of the earth, yet he learned obedience, &c. In all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, and therefore, like them, it was necessary that he should yield obedience to the law which they had broken, and thus he practically learned obedience by suffering the just for the unjust, that he might bring them to God. From them obedience to the holy law of God was required; but from him it was obedience unto death. He received a commandment to lay down his life, and he was not disobedient.
