Dyer, Bryan R. “‘In the Midst of the Assembly I Will Praise You’: Hebrews 2:12 and Its Contribution to the Argument of the Epistle.” Journal for the Study of the New Testament (2021).
Abstract:
"This article studies Ps. 21.23 LXX in Heb. 2.12 and zeroes in on the
fascinating image that it presents: Jesus worshipping within the
Christian community. This image is sometimes lost as it appears in the
second half of a quotation in which the first part seems to make the
more significant point (Jesus’ solidarity with his siblings). Yet this
striking image of Jesus praising God makes an important theological and
sociological contribution to the epistle’s argument. As this article
will argue, this image contributes to a larger attempt by the author to
solidify commitment to the community and ground the group’s identity in
Jesus."
