Introduction to Hebrews
Concise Complete
This epistle shows Christ as the end, foundation, body,
and truth of the figures of the law, which of themselves were no virtue for the
soul. The great truth set forth in this epistle is that Jesus of Nazareth is the
true God. The unconverted Jews used many arguments to draw their converted
brethren from the Christian faith. They represented the law of Moses as superior
to the Christian dispensation, and spoke against every thing connected with the
Saviour. The apostle, therefore, shows the superiority of Jesus of Nazareth, as
the Son of God, and the benefits from his sufferings and death as the sacrifice
for sin, so that the Christian religion is much more excellent and perfect than
that of Moses. And the principal design seems to be, to bring the converted
Hebrews forward in the knowledge of the gospel, and thus to establish them in
the Christian faith, and to prevent their turning from it, against which they
are earnestly warned. But while it contains many things suitable to the Hebrews
of early times, it also contains many which can never cease to interest the
church of God; for the knowledge of Jesus Christ is the very marrow and kernel
of all the Scriptures. The ceremonial law is full of Christ, and all the gospel
is full of Christ; the blessed lines of both Testaments meet in Him; and how
they both agree and sweetly unite in Jesus Christ, is the chief object of the
epistle to the Hebrews to discover.
