For he didn’t subject the world to come, of which we speak, to angels.

EXPLANATION

Verse 5. God hath not put in subjection to the Angels the [2] world to come. By the world to come, is meant the Church of Christ to the end of the world, and succeeding to the state of those who served God under the old law. The former world, under the law of Moses, might be said to be subject to Angels, by whom that law was delivered; but the church of the new law is subject to Christ, its author and publisher. Witham.
