emphasizes practical application of concepts

If you are studying the book of Hebrews for the first time, "A Faith That Endures" will get you off to a good start. Though it is written by a master theologian, it is not difficult to read. The major concepts are presented very clearly without the clutter of technical jargon and arguments.On the other hand, if you are looking for or need a verse by verse exegetical commentary with all of the underlying arguments, this is not the book for you. While the book is layed out in the style of a commentary, it was not the author's intention to show all of the reasons behind each remark. Again, if you need a commentary to help you determine for yourself the meaning of certain controversial verses, this is not the book for you - you need something more detailed. However, even though it does not give the greatest exegetical detail, the introductory material is very good, and the reader will benefit greatly from this. The book emphasizes the practical application for the believer and has numerous commentary inserts scattered throughout like a devotional would have, although the inserts tend to be more practical than inspiring.
