(AnthropopatheiaA 891 [book indicates verse 4]; HeterosisH 519)

10 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.
11 For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified [are] allE of oneE : for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
(EllipsisE 80)
12 Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midstP of the church will I sing praise unto thee.
(PleonasmP 412)
13 And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me.
14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took partS of the same; that through deathA s he might destroy him that had the power of deathA , that is, the devil;
(AntanaclasisA 293; SynecdocheS s 645 S; 651 s)
15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetimeA subject to bondage.
