In chapter one 7 OT verses were used to distinguish between the Son and angels.
In 2:1-4 the message brought by angels (Law on Sinai) was compared to the message brought by the Son.
Now in these verses we bring up the administrative position of angels in this age and compare them to the coming age of the Son.
In this present world angels have administrative responsibilities, but not in the age to come.
Angelic administration or government appears in Deuteronomy 3:8.
The Septuagint translation says:
“When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the children of men, he set the bounds of the peoples according to the number of the angels of God.”
In Daniel 10:20 we have references to the “prince of Persia” and the “prince of Greece”
Ephesians 6:12 lists the positions as “rulers, authorities, powers”
The writer of Hebrews simply uses this topic to point out when angels have authority and when they will not. He does not discuss the details of a topic that he assumes his readers agree with and knows they understand.
