Présentation de l'éditeur :
In this carefully crafted commentary, Peter O'Brien uses discourse analysis to show how the letter to the Hebrews is put together. He reveals what it would have meant for its first hearers and what it means for readers today.
O'Brien views the epistle as a 'word of exhortation' - a homily or sermon that skilfully interweaves exposition and exhortation, encouraging faithful perseverance in the light of the superlative final word God has spoken in Christ.
Hebrews is a magnificent New Testament document. It is carefully constructed and beautifully written, theologically profound and powerfully argued. It challenges our understanding of reality and makes us ponder a world in which the unseen is more real, more powerful, and more attractive than that which can be seen and touched and counted . The letter that wonderfully portrays Jesus as Son of God and great high priest, who is both human and divine, the crucified and exalted one, also makes stringent demands on its readers in relation to Christian discipleship. It summons believers, just as it did the first listeners, to unqualified commitment, unflagging perseverance and a willingness to suffer for one s faith.
For contemporary readers, however, Hebrews is one of the most difficult New Testament books to understand, and as a result it has often been neglected.
