How do we know Jesus tasted death for everyone?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus tasted death by God's grace for many sons, indicating a specific group rather than all individuals without exception.

In Hebrews 2:9, it states that Jesus 'by the grace of God should taste death for every man.' However, the word 'man' is not originally in the text, implying that it refers to every of the many sons He brings to glory. The context suggests that His atoning death is efficient for the elect, those specifically chosen and given to Him by the Father. This understanding is reinforced throughout Scripture, showing that Jesus' sacrifice was not for all indiscriminately but for those whom He calls His brethren.
