Yet for many persons biblical word of God is less a sharp sword than a crutch, supporting rather than piercing them.

除非信徒的視線盈滿了基督，讓祂重整生命的優先次序，並支配人生經驗，否則沒有一個信徒能夠面對逆境。希伯來書的第一批讀者正過著艱難的日子，其中許多人面對了凶猛的逼迫。他們受到攻擊，家園遭到毀壞，其中一些人甚至被關在監牢裏。 這封書信為這些人帶來了鼓勵。書信的作者將他們的眼目轉向基督，並指出祂如何應驗了舊約獻祭所要呈現的盼望。他呼籲讀者要有堅定的信心，這信心將要帶領他們度過眼前艱難的日子。這樣的鼓勵與挑戰，對基督徒絕不會不適切。布瑞蒙在這逐段的註釋中，清楚地表明了這一點。 布瑞蒙曾任倫敦司布真學院的院長；多年來他也是一位牧者。現在住在劍橋附近，是作家也是講員。他寫了許多書，包括聖經信息系列中的《民數記》、《申命記》及《尼希米記》。▕ 作者介紹▕布瑞蒙（Raymond Brown）你是否曾夢想過，每個禮拜都有一位聰明絕頂卻又和藹可親的長者，到你的教會主持查經班。他說話鏗鏘有力、觀點清晰，再怎麼複雜的道理，從他口裡說出來，都變得容易理解。...

No Old Testament book has exerted a greater influence on the formation of both Jewish and Christian thought and practice than Deuteronomy. It presents the final message of Moses to the people of Israel, providing foundational theology for the rest of Scripture. When we read Deuteronomy today, we hear Moses address us as a future generation of the covenant people of God. The challenges and needs faced by the Israelites still resonate with believers in every new era.Raymond ...
