Publisher's Synopsis
"This book introduces readers to the rich theology of the letter to the Hebrews. Hebrews's detailed and complex interaction with Old Testament texts-especially its exploration of ancient Israel's sanctuary, priesthood, sacrifices, and ritual-feels daunting to many Christians. This book dispels that discomfort so that readers delight in Hebrews's exaltation of Jesus's all-sufficiency, learn from Hebrews how to read the Old Testament in light of its role as preparatory testimony to the Son and his redemptive achievement, and respond to Hebrew's integration of theology and pastoral exhortation with a faith that clings confidently to the hope secured for us by Christ"--.
