How do we know that Jesus Christ is greater than the angels?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus Christ is declared to be greater than the angels because He is the only Son of God, who sits at the right hand of the Father.

In Hebrews 1, it is made clear that Jesus Christ holds a superior status over the angels. The text indicates that God never said to any angel, 'You are my Son; today I have become your Father.' Instead, Christ is acknowledged as the only begotten Son of God, which establishes His supremacy. Moreover, the assertion that 'Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever' illustrates His divine authority and eternal reign, which is not bestowed upon any angel. This profound distinction underscores the unique relationship Christ has with the Father and confirms His preeminence in creation and in the kingdom of God.
