{And might deliver} (kai apallax(8869)). Further purpose with
the first aorist active subjunctive of appallass(935c), old verb to
change from, to set free from, in N.T. only here,  Lu 12:58  Ac
19:12 . {Through fear of death} (phob(9369) thanatou). Instrumental
case of phobos. The ancients had great fear of death though the
philosophers like Seneca argued against it. There is today a
flippant attitude towards death with denial of the future life
and rejection of God. But the author of Hebrews saw judgement
after death ( 9:27f. ). Hence our need of Christ to break the
power of sin and Satan in death. {All their lifetime} (dia
pantos tou z(8869)n). Present active infinitive with pas and the
article in the genitive case with dia, "through all the
living." {Subject to bondage} (enochoi douleias). Old adjective
from enech(935c), "held in," "bound to," with genitive, bond-slaves
of fear, a graphic picture. Jesus has the keys of life and death
and said: "I am the life." Thank God for that.
