The New American Commentary on Hebrews offers a thorough exposition of this profound epistle, focused on its unparalleled teaching about the supremacy of Christ, the nature of the new covenant, and the perseverance of the saints. David L. Allen treats the superiority of Christ to angels, to Moses, and to the Levitical priesthood in turn.
Special attention is given to the nature of faith, the assurance of salvation, and the warnings against apostasy, which are the passages that make Hebrews difficult to preach. Allen also examines the historical and cultural situation of the original audience and the structure and literary style of the epistle, drawing throughout on the Greek text. 672 pages.
