Works 20: Hebrews vol. 4

John Owen here analyses the text of Hebrews with care and provides a
judicious interpretation which shows an impressive familiarity with a wide
range of biblical scholarship. He also provides rich practical applications.






John Owen (1616-1683) was probably the greatest systematic theologian
of the British Puritans, yet such was his depth of Christian wisdom and
discernment that he also excelled in pastoral and spiritual theology. Common to his stature in both of these areas was his understanding of
Scripture. While this is evident throughout his writings, it is in his massive
exposition of the Epistle to the Hebrews that the range of his knowledge and
the depth of his exegetical powers are most evident. Here he analyses the text
with care and provides a judicious interpretation which shows an impressive
familiarity with a wide range of biblical scholarship.


In addition, following the classical Puritan method of commentary with
its
constant concern for Christian living, he provides rich practical
applications. Thus in a balanced way, he addresses both mind and
heart. Written with the reverent spirit of a scholar-pastor whose stated
aim in his ministry was to promote holiness", Owen's study " of Hebrews is one of the great classical commentaries of the Christian
Church.
