It's one thing to know Bible stories; it's another to know the
story of the Bible. It's one thing to be aware of the story's many
heroes; it's another to have met the Hero himself. From the Old
Testament that anticipates him, to the Gospels that manifest him,
to the Book of Acts that proclaims him, to the Epistles that
explain him, and to the Book of Revelation that tells of him coming
again, your Bible is about Jesus. That's why I love the vision of
the Christ-Centered Exposition Commentary series. It models for
preachers and teachers how to proclaim--with pastoral focus and
exegetical care--the beauty of the gospel from every page of
Scripture. Matt Smethurst
Associate Editor for The Gospel Coalition
Albert Mohler is to be commended for providing readers with a
theologically focused, exegetically faithful, and Christ-honoring
exposition the book of Hebrews. This insightful and impressive
commentary on one of the most challenging books in the New
Testament simultaneously points readers to the incomparable
superiority of Christ while wrestling with the historical meaning
and contemporary significance of the book's structure, as well as
the serious warning passages scattered throughout the epistle. In
doing so, Mohler has given us more than a cogent and clearly
written theological commentary for preachers and teachers; he has
also provided his readers with an immensely helpful, warm-hearted
resource for all who wish to understand the truth of God's Word. It
is a joy to recommend this marvelous book for pastors, church
leaders, and students alike. David S. Dockery
President, Trinity International University
When Dr. Al Mohler is involved I always have a difficult time
knowing whether I had rather read his philosophy and world view
insights or to peruse his keen exposition of Scripture. This volume
on Hebrews may solve the equation. Polymath extraordinaire, Mohler
mixes that intellectual attainment with a tender heart for God's
word and a love for the auditor in a rare style of commentary for
preaching to the man on the street. A man who plans to preach the
Bible cannot afford to miss this commentary on Hebrews. Paige

"With this commendable commentary on Hebrews, Al Mohler has done
preachers and teachers a great service. Readers will find that the
book is thorough, informative, and profitable, and that it will
stir up the coals and fan the flames of preaching passion and fire.
Take up and read!" Terry L. Wilder, Wesley Harrison Chair and
Professor of New Testament and Associate Dean, PhD Program,
Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Fort Worth, Texas
