Hebrews (Commentaries for Christian Formation)
Logos 電子版
Overview
The Letter to the Hebrews is one of the most enigmatic and distinctive documents in the New Testament. It is also an important window, along with the Gospels and the letters of Paul, into how the earliest Christians understood Jesus in light of the religious texts and practices of Israel. As such, it is a vital source for Christian life and thought today. In this volume Amy Peeler mines the riches of the Letter to the Hebrews for insight into Christian formation in today’s world.
The Commentaries for Christian Formation (CCF) series serves a central purpose of the Word of God for the people of God: faith formation. Some series focus on exegesis, some on preaching, some on teaching, and some on application. This new series integrates all these aims, serving the church by showing how sound theological exegesis can underwrite preaching and teaching, which in turn forms believers in the faith.
Uniting these volumes is a shared conviction that interpreting Scripture is not an end in itself. Faithful belief, prayer, and practice, deeper love of God and neighbor: these are ends of scriptural interpretation for Christians. The volumes in Commentaries for Christian Formation interpret Scripture in ways aimed at ordering readers’ lives and worship in imitation of Christ, informing their understanding of God, and animating their participation in the church’s global mission with a deepened sense of calling.
