Hebrews cover

New Testament professor Robert J. Cara’s addition to the Mentor Commentary series highlights the timely message of Hebrews to persevere in Christ.

Bringing a particularly Reformed viewpoint, Robert J. Cara underscores the presentation of Jesus as the Son and high priest. In a letter written to encourage and exhort the believers, Cara uncovers how the superior person and superior work of Jesus is broadcast loud and clear to draw back hearts tempted to drift from this glorious reality.

Cara’s love for studying God’s word shines through this comprehensive and clarifying commentary. He connects God’s word to God’s world and brings each section to a close by culminating with a personal reflection that encourages us to delight in and absorb the glorious truth on display.

An essential guide to understanding, enjoying and applying Hebrews; rediscover the supremacy of Christ and respond with rekindled affection.

This will be a key commentary for anyone studying or preaching through the book of Hebrews.

-- Ross Durham (Pastor, Grace Hill Church, Hillsborough, North Carolina)

Robert Cara’s commentary on Hebrews is marked by clear and convincing exegesis, theological depth, and practical relevance. 

-- Thomas R. Schreiner (James Buchanan Harrison Professor of New Testament Interpretation and Associate Dean, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky)

Here is a real treat: a commentary on Hebrews written from a consistently Reformed perspective, which interacts with both historical and contemporary scholarship.

-- Brandon D. Crowe (Associate Professor of New Testament, Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania )

Cara’s footnotes demonstrate a thorough acquaintance with the relevant literature (contemporary and historical), while his exposition provides readers with exegetically careful and theologically sound readings of the text. Highly recommended.

-- Guy Prentiss Waters (James M. Baird, Jr. Professor of New Testament, Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson, Mississippi)

Cara has written an impressive commentary—deeply researched yet conversational in tone, theologically rich yet pastorally attuned—on one of the most important and difficult books of the Bible.

-- Kevin DeYoung (Senior Pastor, Christ Covenant Church, Matthews, North Carol
