“For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.”
In bringing many sons and daughters to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through what he suffered — the word "archēgos" describes Jesus as the one who goes before us through the way of suffering. His perfection is not moral development but the completion of his redemptive work through obedience unto death.
