What does it mean that Jesus is able to succor those who are tempted?

Answered in 1 source

It means Jesus can provide true relief and aid to those undergoing trials because He has shared in their suffering (Hebrews 2:18).

The term 'succor' highlights Jesus’ role in providing essential support to those who are tempted. Hebrews 2:18 underscores His capability to assist us through our trials due to His prior suffering. This duality of being both divine and human allows Him to offer effective help that is rooted in understanding and compassion. When Christians face difficulties, they can turn to Him with confidence, knowing He is intimately aware of their struggles. This provision is not passive but involves an active commitment to uplift and empower believers in their distress, showcasing God’s love through Christ’s sacrificial willingness to suffer for humanity.
