A Commentary on the Epistle to the Hebrews

Abstract

The acquisition of the A & C Black theology list brings major Biblical commentaries and some of contemporary theology's most distinguished scholars to Continuum's already outstanding list. Continuum plans to build on the A & C Black list and its Continuum, Chapman, and Mowbray religious book programs to further expand its leading position in religious publishing. This commentary stresses the permanent importance of this Epistle for religion and theology. Bishop Montefiore points out that it contains deep spiritual insights, especially in the field of Christology. Treating it as an important primary source of Christian doctrine and without sacrificing scholarly accuracy, he reduces the critical problems to simple issues in a way that will be of value to those beginning their acquaintance with the Epistle as well as to its seasoned students. Theories of authorship and origin are discussed in a lengthy introduction where the similarities and differences with the theology of St. Paul are indicated.
