• What else does He have that’s more excellent than theirs?

• Who are they all about?

• What is the writer trying to establish? Why would that be necessary?

• What does it mean to be “begotten?” How does that differ from created?

• Do angels have power? What do they do with it?

• How does this differ from the power of the Son?

• Where does the Son sit? What does He do there?

• How will happen to all created things? What about God?

• What, finally, is the work of the angels, as described in v. 14?
