This is an amazing verse! Let's enumerate the points it makes: → Jesus is the epitome of God's Glory → Jesus is how God looks → Jesus holds everything together by the Word of His Power → Jesus has purged all sin by himself → Jesus is seated at the right hand of Majesty This profound statement speaks to the fact that matter exists and is ordered by the command of the eternal Word by the eternal Spirit. It explains why science is unable to fathom the essence of matter. They have reached the point where the energy to inspect the smaller particles moves them (Heisenberg uncertainty principle). If they were able to keep delving they would find nothing material, only Jesus' spoken Word! The Holy Spirit is The Majesty. Jesus is His physical form. The Majesty is not defined by dimensions. He is infinite. Jesus' body is finite but He is the focal point of The Majesty. We cannot 'see' His Holy Spirit in the same way we 'see' Jesus. - |
