The Crossway Classic Commentaries
Original works by godly writers, tailored for the understanding
of today's reader
For hundreds of years Christendom has been blessed with Bible
commentaries written by great men of God who were highly respected
for their godly walk and their insight into spiritual truth. The
Crossway Classic Commentary Series, carefully adapted for maximum
understanding and usefulness, presents the very best work on
individual Bible books for today's believers.
The author of Hebrews wanted his audience to know and understand
one truth: Christ is superior, and therefore, so is Christianity.
He demonstrates this by comparing the imperfect old covenant with
the perfect new covenant. The person of Christ is better than
prophets and angels, His priesthood is greater than that of
Melchizedek and the line of Aaron, and His power within the
believer's life is incomparable. Between these contrasts he exhorts
the readers to persevere in their faith, be obedient, grow in their
understanding, and not miss the grace of God. The lessons and
admonitions of Hebrews have intensely practical application for all
readers--then and now.
John Owens' unveiling of this text will give pastors and
students of the Bible a thorough handle on its key passages. The
message of Hebrews proves that Jesus Christ is still the Savior the
world needs today. Contemporary believers will be inspired by it as
they seek to uphold and defend Christ's supremacy in a pluralistic
world.
