Hebrews Bible Study

A commentary of the book of Hebrews. This audiobook is a review of Paul's treatise on Christ as our High Priest and comparative study of religions for those Christians who had been Hebrew to consider.

When you think of a son trudging uphill, carrying wood for his own sacrifice because his father has decided to give him up to death, what biblical event does this bring to mind? Is it Abraham and Isaac in Genesis 22, or is it Christ's passion in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John? The kinship between these two stories is deeper than mere coincidence, and the similarities don't end there. In fact, Murray argues that Christ isn't just present in the story of Abraham and Isaac - he's present on every page of the Old Testament.

Some people find the Old Testament to be confusing, out of date, and essentially replaced by the New Testament. They are missing out. The Old Testament offers us a grand narrative that reveals God's work, God's purposes, and God's wisdom. Christopher J. H. Wright fits the pieces together and shows us the coherent whole. Using seven key sentences drawn straight from the Old Testament, he connects the dots and points us toward Jesus.

This new edition of a best-selling evangelical survey of the Old Testament has been thoroughly updated and retains the pedagogical features that have made the work so popular.

האם החיים הם הבלים וסבל או אושר עילאי ? האם ישנה משמעות למעשינו תחת השמש? מה יהיה בסופנו ? האומנם יש יתרון לחוכמה ? מפני מה לא ניתן להקים משטר צודק ? מהם קשרי הגומלין בין אושר לעושר ומדוע איש אוהב כסף לא ישבע כסף ? מה מקור הרגשות ומה אנו יודעים על התשוקות ? האם ידיעת המוות יכולה לשמש כמדריך לחיים ? הכתוב במגילת קהלת מזמין את הקורא לחשוב בעצמו על כל הסוגיות שבהן התחבט המשורר החכם, מחבר המגילה. קהלת אינו מורה לנו לחשוב כמוהו וגם אינו מתווה לנו מסלול הליכה בעקבותיו.

Hebrews is one of the books of the New Testament. The text does not mention the name of its author, but was traditionally attributed to Paul the Apostle.

This is a summons to serve Christ the Redeemer-King fully and faithfully, without compromise. In our time, it calls for a break, not only with the prevailing culture of humanistic statism and its messianic claims and pretensions, but also a wayward church that has made itself the handmaiden to Christ's enemies.
