Live the Word Commentary

In his New Testament commentary series, John Stanko captures the essence of each verse, with plenty of questions and tips not only to help you understand the Word, but also to apply it in your everyday life. In this volume, John looks at the anonymous letter to the Hebrews. In this letter, the writer (or writers) made a passionate appeal to the readers not to abandon their faith in Christ. The author continually emphasized the superiority of Christ to Moses and all of the Old Testament practices, which in reality all pointed ahead to the plan of God in the Lord Jesus. There is no attempt to glorify or romanticize the Old Testament or the Jewish heritage, for it all amounts to nothing apart from faith in Christ.
