Hebrews (IVP New Testament Commentary Series)
HEBREWS.    Jewish Christians are under fire from their nonChristian kinsmen for neglecting the Jewish traditions.  Faced with hostility, the loss of jobs, and worse, many of them are tempted to hide their faith in Christ and revert back to the Jewish customs.  Then a trusted mentor reminds them in a strong, clear letter that Christ is far superior to anything Judaism offers.    The letter to the Hebrews reigns unchallenged as the New Testament’s finest commentary on the relationship between Christ and the Old Testament.  Its stirring message will challenge you to live wholeheartedly for Him in every situation.    LifeChange Series:  Christians have a lifelong goal: to become like Christ.  This involves change, and change isn’t always easy.  But the more you know of God’s purposes for you, the more you can experience His joy and participate in His plan.
