A Commentary on the Epistle to the Hebrews

The author of Hebrews has a superb perspective on Christ's transcendental supremacy, on the uniqueness of his priestly mediation, and on the total "once-for-all" efficacy of his sacrifice of himself for us sinners. His understanding of the logic of the incarnation as the means both to the Son's self-identification with mankind and also to his self-offering, Man for man, in our place on the cross is penetrating. He perceives that the exaltation of the risen Savior means the exaltation also of our humanity, which he united to himself in order that he might redeem it, with the result that the way is now open for us into the heavenly sanctuary of the presence of God himself. - Preface.
