For people beginning to doubt the uniqueness and supremacy of Christ, the author of the book of Hebrews provided one of the longest, most profound arguments in the New Testament. Christians today will find their understanding stretched and their loyalty confirmed by this rich presentation of our great High Priest, the Son of God, whose sacrifice of himself took away our sins and gave us continual access to God. Written in a fresh, succinct style, this commentary from a leading evangelical pastor supplies helpful background information that paves the way for our seeing what the text means for us today as well as what it meant for its original hearers. Students, pastors, Bible teachers and everyone who wants to understand the message of Hebrews for the church will benefit from this excellent resource.

Written by the team who designed and wrote the Life Application Study Bible, this commentary series provides valuable insights on how to apply God's Word to life today.

The Life Application Bible Commentary series is ideal for individuals studying the Bible personally; for Bible teachers leading small groups, classes, and seminars; and for pastors preparing their sermons. Hebrews has been deeply appreciated by its readers throughout the centuries-from the first century to the twenty-first century. During the early days of the church, believers from all backgrounds were subject to persecution and pressure to renounce their faith. Vulnerable to doubts about the superiority of Jesus Christ, Jewish believers were tempted to turn back to old Jewish rituals and ways of thinking. The letter to the Hebrews was written to warn Jewish Christians against drifting from faith in Jesus back to their former religious rituals. Though today's Western Christians may not be enticed by Jewish religious practices, we may feel the tug of materialism, self-promoting individualism, or a former lifestyle. Hebrews speaks to this temptation with the clear message that only Christ brings salvation, only Christ brings forgiveness, and only Christ satisfies. Therefore Christ alone deserves our adoration, worship, and praise.
