We will work through the text of Hebrews, honing in on particular passages that reveal how Christ fulfils Old Testament types, with a special emphasis on tabernacle, High Priest and day of atonement theology. While this is not a ‘preaching lab’, we will also discuss how we might teach and apply all this sophisticated doctrine for a Sunday morning congregation.
What was the specific Jewish background that Hebrews was written for?
How can we understand Christ’s role in creation, against the backdrop of creation views today? (1:1-4, 11:3)
In what sense is Christ ‘better than’ angels, Moses, and Joshua?
Who is Melchizedek, and why is he so key in understanding Christ’s better priesthood?
How should we interpret the warning passages interspersed in Hebrews, and how do they inform our understanding of final judgement?
What about Hebrews 6:1-12? Can we lose our salvation? How can we interpret scripture with scripture when controversial passages arise?
Christ’s ‘once for all’ sacrifice and its implications for eucharistic theology
How does the old covenant differ from the new, as seen through the lens of Hebrews 12:16-29?
What can we learn about sermon structures from Hebrews, itself a sermon with an epistolary conclusion?
