"I will put my trust in Him.": This shows that Jesus trusts God the Father.
"I, and the children God has given Me.": This shows the close relationship between Jesus and God's children.

Hebrews 2:10–18

This passage suggests at least four reasons why the Son of God became human.

It was appropriate: It aligns with God's character to achieve salvation this way (Hebrews 2:10).
Jesus needed to become human to die (2:14).
According to Old Testament law, high priests had to be chosen from among God's people (2:17).
Jesus became a compassionate priest by experiencing human suffering and challenges (2:18).
