A Commentary on the Epistle to the Hebrews

<P>The Epistle to the Hebrews has been the subject of controversy and conjecture: its author is unknown its occasion unstated and its destination disputed. But these questions pale in comparison to the importance of the letter’s pervasive theme: the absolute supremacy of Christ—a supremacy which allows no challenge whether from human or angelic beings. </P><P>Hughes’s introduction includes an outline and synopsis of Hebrews and discusses theme origin authorship and date. His verse-by-verse study of the text is accessible to specialist and nonspecialist readers alike. Technical points are dealt with in notes and excursuses.</P>
