‏ Hebrews 1:9

 Hath anointed thee ( εχρισεν σε ). First aorist active indicative of  χριω, to anoint, from which verb the verbal  Χριστος (Anointed One) comes. See Christ's use of  εχρισεν in Lu 4:18 from Isa 66:1.

 With the oil of gladness ( ελαιον αγαλλιασεως ). Accusative case with  εχρισεν (second accusative besides  σε ). Perhaps the festive anointing on occasions of joy (12:2). See Lu 1:44.

 Fellows ( μετοχους ). Old word from  μετεχω, partners, sharers, in N.T. only in Hebrews save Lu 5:7. Note  παρα with accusative here, beside, beyond, above (by comparison, extending beyond).
