Hébreux 5:2 Meaning and Commentary

Hebrews 5:2

Who can have compassion on the ignorant
Who have committed sins of ignorance, and bring their sacrifices for them; these he does not insult and upbraid, nor break out into anger and indignation against; but pities them, and sympathizes with them; has a just measure of compassion suitable to their condition, and bears with them with great moderation and temper:

and on them that are out of the way;
of God's commandments; who are like sheep going astray, and turn to their own way; who transgress the law of God, and err from it; perhaps such who sin knowingly and wilfully, and through infirmity, are meant:

for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity;
not of body only, but of mind, sinful infirmity; he had much of it, it beset him all around; he was "clothed" with it, as the Syriac version renders it; as Joshua the high priest was with filthy garments, ( Zechariah 3:3 ) .

Hébreux 5:2 In-Context

1 En effet, tout souverain Sacrificateur, pris d'entre les hommes, est établi pour les hommes dans les choses qui regardent Dieu, afin d'offrir des dons et des sacrifices pour les péchés.
2 Il peut user de pitié envers ceux qui sont dans l'ignorance et dans l'erreur, puisque lui-même est environné de faiblesses.
3 Et à cause de cela il doit faire des offrandes aussi bien pour ses péchés, que pour ceux du peuple.
4 Et nul ne peut s'attribuer cette dignité, que celui qui est appelé de Dieu, comme Aaron.
5 De même Christ ne s'est point attribué la gloire d'être souverain Sacrificateur, mais il l'a reçue de celui qui lui a dit: C'est Toi qui es mon Fils, je t'ai engendré aujourd'hui.
