    • 1:10

      O Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth: Paul quotes from the Septuagint wording of Ps 102:25 (101:25, LXX), which included the expression “O Lord.” Here he demonstrates further the superiority of Jesus over the angels. The psalmist addressed these words to God. (Ps 102:1, 24) But Paul applies them to Jesus because Jesus is the one whom God used as His agent, or instrument, in creating everything, as Heb 1:2 and other verses show. (Joh 1:2-4; Col 1:15-17 and study notes on verses 15 and 16; see also Pr 8:23-31.) In view of their close working relationship, it could rightly be said that both Jehovah and Jesus “laid the foundations of the earth” and that “the heavens are the works” of their hands. In a similar way, both Jehovah and Jesus are referred to in the Bible as “our Savior.”​—Tit 1:3, 4 and study note.
