The logical explanation is that the NT writers, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, often modified an OT quote in order to communicate what God intended for them to communicate. Obviously if one believes in the inspiration of ALL Scripture, then there is no such thing as a NT human author writing anything in the Bible that the Divine Author did not authorize.

Good Evening Grace, The apostle is showing that the angels serve God in a ministerial capacity. They obey His Will as the winds and the lightings do. Rank and office of spirit, while the Son is Lord of all. The quotation is made from Ps. 104:4. Barnes Notes: "The passage "might" be translated, "Who maketh His angels winds, and His ministers a flame of fire; "that is "who makes His angels like the winds,or as swift as the winds, and His ministers as rapid, as terrible, and as resistless as the lighting." The use of Ps. 104:4 is to show the Son's position greater than angels. The apostle is addressing a group of people that would know the psalm very well. The wind (spirits) like nature of the cherubin, the burning( flame of fire ) devotion of the seraphin,outward manifestations of angelic servants. 1 John 1:9 and 1 John 1:7B, Brian |
