Discovering Hebrews (CBG)
Steve Motyer
More than any other book of the New Testament, Hebrews offers us a panorama of the Bible as a unified whole. The writer emphasizes the perfection of the new covenant by setting it against the backdrop of the old one which is past its sell-by date, obsolete, a mere shadow.
Steve Motyer is a lecturer in New Testament at London School of Theology, formerly London Bible College, where he leads the Theology and Counselling course. He is a respected speaker, and author of The Bible with Pleasure, Israel in the Plan of God, Discovering Ephesians and co-author of 1 and 2 Thessalonians in the Crossway Bible Guides.
Hebrews contains many rich motifs:
* God, his Son, angels and humans - the divine order
* Salvation then and now
* The inspiring gallery of great heroes of faith
* Exhortations to press on, endure and keep a heavenly perspective
Crossway Bible Guides are tailor-made for group study leaders and members, and are also ideal for personal devotional use. They provide a concise summary and lively application of each passage, with pointed questions to probe more deeply into personal, church-centred and global issues. They help us to grasp the Bible's message and allow the Bible to get a grip on us.
