Endorsement<\/h2>\n

‘…a work of gigantic strength as well as gigantic size; and he who hath mastered it is very little short, both in respect to the doctrinal and practical of Christianity, of being an erudite and accomplished theologian.’ — THOMAS CHALMERS<\/p>\n

Book Description<\/h2>\n

John Owen here analyses the text of Hebrews with care and provides a judicious interpretation which shows an impressive familiarity with a wide range of biblical scholarship. He also provides rich practical applications.<\/p>\n

John Owen (1616-1683) was probably the greatest systematic theologian of the British Puritans, yet such was his depth of Christian wisdom and discernment that he also excelled in pastoral and spiritual theology. \u00a0Common to his stature in both of these areas was his\u00a0understanding\u00a0of Scripture. While this is\u00a0evident\u00a0throughout his writings, it is in his massive exposition of the\u00a0Epistle to the Hebrews<\/em>\u00a0that the range of his knowledge and the depth of his exegetical powers are most evident. Here he analyses the text with care and provides a judicious interpretation which shows an impressive familiarity with a wide range of biblical scholarship. \u00a0In addition, following the classical Puritan method of commentary with its constant concern for Christian living, he provides rich practical applications. \u00a0Thus in a balanced way, he addresses both mind and heart. \u00a0Written with the reverent spirit of a scholar-pastor whose stated aim in his ministry was ‘to promote holiness’, Owen’s study of\u00a0Hebrews<\/em>\u00a0is one of the great classical commentaries of the Christian Church.<\/p>\n
