About the Book
A statement of the book’s aims: • To return Christians to biblical norms. To get them thinking about the old paths and what was considered the whole truth. • To encourage Christians to pursue Bible study by giving them helps such as an understanding of some basic NT Greek. • To set forth the wonder of the Lord Jesus Christ as revealed to us as our High Priest and Saviour. Its special merits: • Verse-by-verse and, often, word-by-word comments on a book of the Bible that usually receives little, if any, church, Bible study, and preaching attention. It looks closely at the Greek words used (of the eclectic [WH] variety and the TR). • It examines in detail many of the fundamentals of the Christian faith and challenges doctrines and actions held by some professing Christians today. • It reproduces many non-Hebrews scriptures that are quoted so that readers do not have to look them up (this is a time-saver). • It has many additional questions at the end of a section to aid, stimulate, and guide the minds of Christians in their pursuit of the truth. • It includes the names and dates of many historical figures from theology, hymnology, philosophy, and science. • It has a set of appendices at the back on various topics. They are mainly from the Hebrews commentary so one does not have to search through the book for them.
