A 33-lesson Bible Study on the Book of Hebrews
Hebrews helps us understand the overall story of the Bible — Old Testament to New Testament, the entire scope of redemptive history, how it all led to Christ, and how Christ fulfilled it all.
Christ’s work is the crescendo of God’s work on earth. That’s sort of the heartbeat of this book. If you’re always pondering the question of how the Old Testament and the New Testament relate, you’re going to love studying Hebrews.
Hebrews magnifies Christ like few other books. Every book in the Bible magnifies Christ, but some books do it in such a way that there is a certain amount of clarity, beauty, and wonder you get about Jesus in that book. Hebrews is one of those books. When you read it, you are quickly aware that the author loves Jesus Christ. He thinks he’s amazing, magnificent, extraordinary and the crescendo of all that God does to redeem us.
In this course, Michael Kruger will take students on a journey through this important book in a series of 33 videos. Students should download the accompanying notes, read ahead, and come prepared to dig deep into the text of Scripture.
