Praise for Hebrews

Dr. McWilliams addresses the epistle of Hebrews with theological precision and homiletical incisiveness. . . McWilliams’s grasp of the profound theology of Hebrews is marvelously displayed in the simplicity of expositional preaching. The result is a superb asset for any Christian, but especially for preachers and teachers of God’s Word.

—Harry L. Reeder III, late senior pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, Alabama

Combining exegetical rigor with pastoral sensitivity, McWilliams opens up the riches of the book of Hebrews as a ‘sermon-epistle’ that emphasizes the superiority of Christ, the Mediator of the new covenant, and warns its recipients of the real danger of falling away through unbelief and neglect. . . Pastors and church members alike will greatly benefit from his exposition, which is saturated with homiletical and pastoral insights.

—Cornelis P. Venema, president and professor of doctrinal studies at Mid-America Reformed Seminary, Dyer, Indiana
