8:17 Jesus is heir to all of God’s promises (Mark 12:1-12; Gal 3:18-19; Heb 1:2), and as those who belong to Jesus, we share with him in that glorious inheritance. However, just as it was for Jesus, our path to glory is also marked by suffering. We experience the difficulties that come from striving to live righteously in a world dominated by sin (2 Cor 1:5; Phil 1:29; 3:10).
