Hebrews 2:11
9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor because He suffered death, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.
10 In bringing many sons to glory, it was fitting for God, for whom and through whom all things exist, to make the author of their salvation perfect through suffering.
For both the One who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers.
12 He says: “I will proclaim Your name to My brothers; I will sing Your praises in the assembly.”
13 And again: “I will put My trust in Him.” And once again: “Here am I, and the children God has given Me.”
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
