1:8-9 These verses, quoting Ps 45:6-7, proclaim the Son as the divine, just, eternal, anointed King of the universe. • to the Son he says: Jesus is addressed as God; in Heb 1:9, your God is a reference to God the Father. • pouring out the oil of joy: Olive oil was used to anoint kings of Israel at the inauguration of their rule (1 Sam 10:1; 1 Kgs 19:15-16). God has anointed his Son, Jesus Christ, as King.
