"The book of Hebrews is one of the most challenging writings in the New Testament. We don't know who wrote it; we don't know when it was written; and we don't know precisely who the first readers were. Despite all of these uncertainties, David Allen has written an insightful, edifying commentary that all readers will find rewarding. This is a good one!" - Craig A. Evans, Distinguished Research Professor, The Bible Seminary "David Allen offers an energetic and erudite exposition of Hebrews. A tremendous resource for teachers and preachers who want to plummet into the depths of Hebrews. Allen shows that it is one of the hardest epistles to understand and yet one of the most rewarding to grasp and apply." - Michael F.

Bird, Lecturer in Theology, Ridley College (Melbourne) "David Allen has produced a very fine commentary on Hebrews that should find widespread usage. In the introduction, he makes a very strong case for Lukan authorship that should be widely read and considered. Allen also shows himself to be well-informed on current scholarship and especially on necessary contemporary methods of interpretation, such as discourse analysis. He brings these to bear in this commentary that does not hesitate to examine the major contentious issues in Hebrews. I highly recommend this commentary." - Stanley E. Porter, President, Dean, and Professor of New Testament, McMaster Divinity College "The book of Hebrews proclaims the superiority of Christ over the old covenant and its sacrificial system and includes warning passages that have long challenged interpreters. In this commentary, David Allen carefully and faithfully explains the structure and meaning of the biblical text while engaging a wide range of scholarship.

This volume will serve as a clear and reliable resource for students, pastors, and Bible study leaders seeking to understand Hebrews." - Adam Harwood, McFarland Chair of Theology, New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary.
