Jesus is the Creator and Sustainor of all things. Because of all this after the first stage of His work was accomplished purging us of our sins He sits at the right hand of God The Father Almighty. It has been clearly show that He is above the prophets. Now the statement is made that He is also above the celestial beings themselves stated here in a merism as the angels. God Himself gave us the Mosaic Law. It did not originate from man. It was delivered by men namely Moses but in fact there were two mediators angels representing God and Moses representing the people. Jesus is God as the text states (Hebrews 1:2) and that He is the author of both the law spoken through the prophets and the Gospel brought by Himself in the glorious Shekinah of the body of Jesus. The Law was delivered by angels for Israel at Mount Sinai (Galatians 3:19). It was also common knowledge among the Jewish people in the first century that the Law of God was presented to Moses by angels and not directly by God himself. When the evangelist Stephen rebuked the Jewish authorities in Jerusalem for going against the Law, he said they were those: “Who have received the Law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it” (Acts 7:53). Jesus is the God who created all things and used His servants the angels to deliver the Law, therefore His Name is more excellent than theirs. He is superior to the angels in essence as God even when He entered His physical body at the Incarnation He is better.
