What does the Bible say about Christ tasting death for everyone?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible states that Christ tasted death for every man, specifically referring to those who are His sons and heirs of salvation.

In Hebrews 2:9, the writer observes that Christ, who was made a little lower than the angels, tasted death for everyone. This includes those who are part of His family, specifically the 'sons' and 'daughters' whom He brings to glory. The notion is that Christ's death was representative, fulfilling the covenant requirements to save sinners. His sacrifice was not for all individuals universally but specifically for those chosen as objects of His grace, ensuring their ultimate salvation through His atoning work. Thus, His death carries the promise of redemption for the elect, underscoring the intense personal nature of His salvation.
