Hebrews 1:4 Douay-Rheims

Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath inherited a more excellent name than they.

George Leo Haydock

1774–1849 Catholic

Being made so much better, &c. The Arians pretended from hence that Christ was made, or created. But the apostle speaks of Christ as man, and tells us that Christ, even as man, by his ascension was exalted above the Angels. — As he hath inherited a more excellent name. That is, both the dignity and name of the Son of God, of his only Son, and of his true Son. See 1 John v. 20. (Witham)
