  • Summary

  • The Epistle to the Hebrews constitutes one of the most difficult sections of the Bible for those of us who have embraced a Messianic Jewish perspective. Thankfully, D. Thomas Lancaster, First Fruits of Zion’s Director of Education, has spent years penning a commentary that will enrich and enlighten you. He joins Messiah Podcast to provide a sneak peek into the premise that unlocked the historical understanding of this important book of the Apostolic Scriptures. – Episode Highlights – * The Epistle to the Hebrews is a difficult book to interpret from a Messianic Jewish perspective. Daniel Thomas Lancaster's new commentary brings the latest in New Testament scholarship and the oldest of Jewish hermeneutical principles to bear on the biblical text to present a relevant and insightful understanding of the epistle. * The authorship of Hebrews is uncertain. While it was certainly not the Apostle Paul, it may have been a second-generation disciple of the apostles like Clement of Rome. * Hebrews emphasizes Yeshua's importance as the gateway to the Messianic Era and warns against turning away from him. * The hermeneutical method used in Hebrews, known as kol vechomer, establishes the weight of the first matter to make a case for the second matter. * Understanding the Jewish context and the distinction between Jews and Gentiles is crucial in interpreting Hebrews. – Episode Resources – The Holy Epistle to the Hebrews https://ffoz.store/products/the-holy-epistle-to-the-hebrews The Holy Epistle to the Galatians https://ffoz.store/products/the-holy-epistle-to-the-galatians-book The Holy Epistle to the Ephesians https://ffoz.store/products/the-holy-epistle-to-the-ephesians-book Messiah Podcast is a production of First Fruits of Zion (https://ffoz.org) in conjunction with Messiah Magazine.
