Will as the basis for divine distributions · dominant
In Hebrews 2:4, the accusative singular feminine form occurs in the clause describing distributions of the Holy Spirit; the APB renders the clause "according to his will." The verse presents that will as the stated basis accompanying God's witness through signs, wonders, and powers.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Hebrews 2:4, the APB presents the clause as "according to his will." This identifies the clause's presentation rather than a precise one-to-one rendering.
