Written to Jewish believers who were persecuted and tempted to leave the faith, the central theme of Hebrews is simple but powerful—Christ is superior. As the God-man, Jesus Christ is greater than the prophets of old; greater than the angels, greater than Moses and Joshua, and even greater than the Law and its priesthood. Jesus is the source of our faith, our hope, and our love.
In this volume from Swindoll's Living Insights New Testament Commentary series, Charles Swindoll explores the letter to the Hebrews, unpacking this central theme of Christ's superiority in all things and demonstrating that this letter is dense and deep, complex and compelling, profound and practical. With faithful and passionate exposition, Swindoll reveals that the rich history, vibrant imagery, and eloquent style of the book of Hebrews has the words to refresh our minds and cleanse ours the souls.
