As in any excellent commentary, Peeler provides deep insight into Hebrews while encouraging further personal and communal engagement with it." --Interpretation "A thoughtful, erudite engagement with a challenging biblical text. . . . This commentary will be a much used, valuable resource for anyone wanting to engage profitably with Hebrews." --The Expository Times "Through this excellent commentary, Amy Peeler invites readers to see the vast wealth of this fascinating letter. Her readings are attentive and fresh, though carefully connected to the arguments of the book." --Madison Pierce, associate professor of New Testament, Western Theological Seminary "Amy Peeler's Hebrews is lucidly, beautifully written, excelling especially in rich theological reflection and an uncommon depth of pastoral good sense. Committed followers of our Great High Priest, rejoice! You will find here both an enjoyable read and much encouragement for enduring in the race of faith." --George Guthrie, professor of New Testament, Regent College "Amy Peeler invites readers to hear the Word of God in the words of Hebrews.
