The book of Hebrews has often been the Cinderella of the New
Testament, overlooked and marginalized; and yet it is one of the
most interesting and theologically significant books in the New
Testament. A Cloud of Witness examines the theology of the book in
the light of its ancient historical context. There are chapters
devoted to the structure of Hebrews, the person of Jesus Christ,
Hebrews within the context of Second Temple Judaism and the
Greco-Roman empire and the role of Hebrews in early Christian
thought.
The second annual St. Andrews Conference on Scripture and Theology
brought leading biblical scholars and systematic theologians
together in conversation, seeking to bridge the growing gap between
these disciplines. Reflecting the convergence of the Old Testaments
cultic theology, Hellenistic ideas, and early Christian thinking,
the epistle to the Hebrews provides a perfect foundation for this
fruitful dialogue. / The contributors examine a number of key
theological themes in the letter to the Hebrews: the person and
nature of the Son, his high-priestly work, cosmology, the epistles
theology of Scripture, supersessionism, the call to faith, and
more. Unlike many modern treatments, this substantial volume
considers Hebrews in both its ancient context and against our
modern backdrop. / Edward Adams, Loveday Alexander, Harold W.
