Scholar Robert G. Hoerber writes in reference to ὑπόστασις, while mentioning Hebrews 1:3:
 +
<blockquote> The sense of "confidence" or "assurance" must be eliminated, since examples of this meaning cannot be found. Therefore this translation must be ruled out in Hebrews 11:1, although it has enjoyed much favor since Luther. According to Bauer-Arndt-Gingrich-Danker (p. 847) Hebrews 11:1 should be rendered: "In faith things hoped for become realized" or "In faith things hoped for become reality." So the renderings of Hebrews 11:1 by NRSV, NASB, NIV, Phillips, Moffatt, and Goodspeed miss the point, while NKJV and NEB come closer to the meaning of '''ύπόστασις''' in this verse.<ref>chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://library.mibckerala.org/lms_frame/eBook/On%20the%20Translation%20of%20Hebrews%20.1.11.pdf (emphasis added).</ref></blockquote>
