Writing in an approachable and anecdotal style, Tom Wright helps us find our way round the letter to the Hebrews, one of the most bracing and challenging writings in the New Testament.
He acknowledges that people often find it difficult, because some of the ideas it contains are strange to us. Yet, like meeting a new friend, he helps us to find it full of interest and delight, with a powerful message that comes home to today's ansd tomorrow's church as much as it did to yesterday's.
The ...For Everyone series:
Tom Wright has undertaken a tremendous task: to provide guides to all the books of the New Testament, and to furnish them with his own fresh translation of the entire text. Each short passage is followed by a highly readable discussion, with background information, useful interpretation and explanation, and thoughts as to how it can be relevant to our lives today. No knowledge of technical jargon is required. The series is suitable for personal or group use. The format makes it appropriate also for daily study.
