“Captain” - ARCHEGOS “Many are called sons; only one can be described as the pioneer of their salvation. The word here translated is archegos. Applied in other New Testament passages to Jesus (Acts 3:15; 5:31; Heb.12:2), it is a term of unusual interest. In secular Greek writings it was used of a “hero” who founded a city, gave it its name and became its guardian. Similarly, it denoted one who was “head” of a family or the “founder” of a philosophic school.”

“Captain” - ARCHEGOS “The term also had a distinct military connotation (thus the KJV’s “captain”), referring to a commander of an army who went ahead of his men and blazed the trail for them. All of these terms fit Jesus; but the idea of a leader who opens up a new way seems here to be uppermost in the author’s mind. As a pioneer the Son goes ahead of the saved, opening up a path.” (Neil R. Lightfoot: Jesus Christ Today – A Commentary on The Book of Hebrews)
