AB 36: Hebrews
A New Translation with Introduction and Commentary.
One of early Christianity's most carefully crafted sermons, Epistle to the " Hebrews addresses listeners who have experienced the elation of conversion and " the heat of hostility, but who now must confront the formidable task of
remaining faithful in a society that rejects their commitments. The letter
probes into the one of most profound questions of faith: If it is God's will
that believers be crowned with glory and honour, why are the faithful subject
to suffering and shame? Through the stories of Abraham and Sarah, Moses, and
Rahab, whose faith enabled them to overcome severe trials and conflicts, and
through the story of Jesus himself, whose sufferings opened the way to God's
presence for all, the sermon confirms the foundations of the Christian faith.
In a magisterial introduction, Koester presents a compelling portrait of the
early Christian community and examines the debates that have surrounded
Epistle to the Hebrews" for two millennia. Drawing on his knowledge of " classical rhetoric, he clarifies the book's arguments and discusses the use of
evocative language and imagery to appeal to its audience's minds, emotions, and
will. Providing an authoritative, accessible discussion of the book's high
priestly Christology, this landmark commentary charts new directions for the
interpretation of Epistle to the Hebrews" and its influence on Christian " theology and worship.
A major work of scholarship, comparable to the commentaries by Attridge " (Hermeneia) and Lane (WBC). Koester holds that the controlling theme of Hebrews
is not the superiority of Christ but God's purposes for his people. - " D.A. Carson
