He that sanctifieth (o agiazwn). Present active articular participle of agiazw. Jesus is the sanctifier (Hebrews 9:13 f.; Hebrews 13:12).
They that are sanctified (oi agiazomenoi). Present passive articular participle of agiazw. It is a process here as in Hebrews 10:14, not a single act, though in Hebrews 10:10 the perfect passive indicative presents a completed state.
Of one (ec enov). Referring to God as the Father of Jesus and of the "many sons" above (verse Hebrews 2:10) and in harmony with verse Hebrews 2:14 below. Even before the incarnation Jesus had a kinship with men though we are not sons in the full sense that he is.
He is not ashamed (ouk epaisxunetai). Present passive indicative of epaisxunomai, old compound (Romans 1:16). Because of the common Father Jesus is not ashamed to own us as "brothers" (adelfouv), unworthy sons though we be.
