2:10-12 We Are Family Jesus is truly and fully God, but he is also a human being who suffered and died for all who believe. Because he condescended to take on flesh, he calls us his brothers and sisters. Through his suffering, our perfect leader cleared the path of salvation.

2:14-18 Jesus Knows We are reminded yet again that Jesus suffered and was tested just like us. Why? So he can sympathize with us in our weaknesses. Do you feel like your life is dominated by fear (2:15)? Jesus knows our situation and desires to help us stand strong when we are tested.
