Heb 2:10 By Rick Livermore
The block quote from Wuest is from the chapter on Hebrews. Instead of translating the word Pioneer like the RSV and the NRSV do,
Heb 2:10 (NRSV) It was fitting that God,i for whom and through whom all things exist, in bringing many children to glory, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through sufferings. Wuest says Captain and later File-leader.---By Rick Livermore
Heb 2:10 (Nestle-Aland Greek New Testament, 27th Edition, without Morphology) Ἔπρεπεν γὰρ αὐτῷ, διʼ ὃν τὰ πάντα καὶ διʼ οὗ τὰ πάντα, πολλοὺς υἱοὺς εἰς δόξαν ἀγαγόντα τὸν ἀρχηγὸν τῆς σωτηρίας αὐτῶν διὰ παθημάτων τελειῶσαι. [1]
Hebrews 2:9-10 (NASB)
9 But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.
10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to perfect the author of their salvation through sufferings.[2]

10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to perfect the author of their salvation through sufferings.[2]
2:10 bringing many sons to glory Enacted by Jesus’ exaltation (compare Isa 53:12 and note). This language also echoes God’s action in bringing His people out of Egypt into the promised land (Exod 3:8, 17; 6:6–7; 7:4–5).
originator This title connects Jesus’ death and resurrection (Acts 3:15; 5:31; Heb 12:2). Like Moses, who led God’s people out of Egypt (Exod 12:50–51), Jesus leads the way to salvation (Heb 3:16).
to perfect the originator The idea here is that Jesus was made whole (or complete) through His suffering and death; He already was sinless (Heb 4:15; compare Isa 53:12 and note).---Faithlife Study Bible Notes[3]
"Is the High Priest who has put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself (Heb 2:10-18).
He becomes the Saviour through His death on the Cross (Heb 2:10).
(Heb 2:10) Christ (Messiah) crucified (I Cor. 1:23), was a stumbling block to the Jew. This may have been one of the factors which was influencing these Hebrews in their drift away from their new profession of Messiah, back to the Levitical sacrifices. The inspired writer seeks to justify his bold assertion of Heb2 :9. He senses the recoil which his readers would have from the thought of a suffering Messiah, and he now shows that Jesus' suffering and death were according to the divine fitness of things.
He says, "It became Him (namely, God the Father), for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings."
The words "it became" are the translation of prepo, "to be becoming, seemly, fit." It was not a logical necessity (dei "ought") as in verse 1. It was not an obligation growing out of circumstances (opheilen) as in 2:17 (behooved). It was an inner fitness in God's dealings. The fact that God the Father decreed that it must be through the blood of Christ's Cross that the Captain of our salvation would become the Saviour of sinners, did not find its origin in a divine fiat, but in the very constitution of the nature of God. A holy God cannot look upon sin with any degree of allowance. A righteous God cannot but require that the demands of the violated law be satisfied. And a loving God cannot but provide the very payment of the penalty which His law demands. Thus, the writer shows the sweet reasonableness of the Cross. And because only God can satisfy the demands of God, so only the Messiah who is one of the Persons of the Godhead, could in the great plan of salvation, provide the sacrifice. God the Father provides the salvation, God the Son procures it, and God the Holy Spirit applies it.
The writer speaks of God as the God for whom (di hon) are all things. "For whom" is literally "on account of whom," that is, for whose sake all things exist. God is the final reason for all things. "By whom" is literally "through whose agency" all things came into being. These two emphasize the idea which the writer has just given his readers, that of the sweet reasonableness and fitness of the fact that the Messiah was to be a suffering Messiah.
The clause, "in bringing many sons unto glory," speaks not only of believers as sons but includes also the Son of God Himself, for in Heb 2:9 the writer declares that our Lord was crowned with glory and honor because of His sufferings. The words "to make perfect" are literally "to carry to the goal or consummation." The word is teleioo. This does not imply any moral imperfection in the Lord Jesus, but speaks of the consummation of the human experience of suffering the death of the Cross, through which He must pass if He is to become the Captain of our salvation. The word "captain" is the translation of archegos, a word compounded of ago "to lead or go," and arche, "first," thus, "one who goes first," a "leader." The Son precedes the saved on the road to heaven. He says, "I am the road (hodos), . . . No man cometh to the Father but by Me" (John 14:6). And the writer to the Hebrews speaks of "the freshly slain and living road" (10:20) into the presence of God, the road sprinkled with the blood of Jesus. Our blessed Lord is, therefore, not only the leader on the road to God, but the road itself, and that by reason of His precious blood.
Translation: For it was fitting for Him, for whose sake all things exist, and through whose agency all things came into existence, when bringing many sons into glory, to make complete (as to His Saviour-hood) the file-leader of their salvation through sufferings.
--Wuest's Word Studies from the Greek New Testament - Volume 2. [4]
Hebrews 2:10 For it was an act worthy [of God] and fitting [to the divine nature] that He, for Whose sake and by Whom all things have their existence, in bringing many sons into glory, should make the Pioneer of their salvation perfect [should bring to maturity the human experience necessary to be perfectly equipped for His office as High Priest] through suffering

Lyrics to Pioneer by Beckah Shae
Open up your eyes
It's a new day it's a new day rising
Can you hear the mercy, mercy calling
It's a new day it's a new day rising
Can you hear the mercy, mercy calling
Open up your heart
There's a new way there's a new way
Crying out for you to follow
There's a new way there's a new way
Crying out for you to follow
Don't ever be afraid to go where
You know that you should be
Know there's no better life, than this one here,
Right where you believe
You know that you should be
Know there's no better life, than this one here,
Right where you believe
Go to the unknown, cause you're a Pioneer
Take the lead and see, that you're a Pioneer
Take the lead and see, that you're a Pioneer
Listen for the freedom
It's always there it's always there waiting
For you to enjoy it, so go ahead, enjoy it
It's always there it's always there waiting
For you to enjoy it, so go ahead, enjoy it
Listen for your destiny
It's never too far, it's never too far away
It's always right where love meets your faith
It's never too far, it's never too far away
It's always right where love meets your faith
You'll be the first one,
You'll be the champion,
You'll be the risk taker, the creator
Of something fun,
You'll make the discovery,
Find what's on the other side and see
You'll be all they wanna be
Cause you'll be living your dreams
You'll be the champion,
You'll be the risk taker, the creator
Of something fun,
You'll make the discovery,
Find what's on the other side and see
You'll be all they wanna be
Cause you'll be living your dreams
