Logos is pleased to offer the Gould edition of John Owen’s Exposition of the Epistle to the Hebrews—one of the richest commentaries ever written on the book of Hebrews. This massive 7-volume commentary includes two volumes—nearly 1,000 pages—of introductory essays on historical and theological topics relating to Hebrews, along with five volumes of meticulous exposition and commentary.
Owen’s work on Hebrews is partly critical—with comments on the text and language—and partly doctrinal, containing ample discussion of theology and doctrine. His commentary weaves together Old Testament themes of law and covenant with a New Testament definition of Christ’s priestly function and God’s new covenant of grace. Most importantly, Owen’s emphasis on holiness makes An Exposition of the Epistle to the Hebrews eminently useful for practical Christian study and reflection.
This vast work—almost 4,000 pages and over two million words—reflects Owen’s careful inquiry and stunning mastery of the text, and vindicates Owen’s own claim that “this epistle is as useful to the church as the sun is to the world.” An Exposition of the Epistle to the Hebrews is the result of earnest investigation and deep exploration of the theological topics in the book of Hebrews. In fact, Owen’s theology—here and elsewhere—remains so biblically rooted, and his exegesis and exposition so practically theological, that where one ends and the other begins is not plainly evident.
With the Logos edition of Owen’s Exposition of the Epistle to the Hebrews, all Scripture references are linked to the Greek and Hebrew texts in your digital library, along with your English translations. What’s more, with your digital library, you can read Owen’s commentary alongside other prominent Puritan theologians—or alongside your other commentaries on the book of Hebrews.
