GOD’S PEOPLE IN THE WILDERNESS
The Church in Hebrews
By O. Palmer Robertson. Christian Focus. 149 pages. £9.99
ISBN 978-1-84550-477-9

Studying or preaching from Hebrews can be challenging. It is one of those books where it is easy to get bogged down in detail and lose sight of the bigger message within this part of God’s Word.

Because of the extensive use of the Old Testament within Hebrews, there is a need for a guide that places its message within the wider context of the Bible. This little volume by O. Palmer Robertson is brilliant at doing just that. He shows that the life and calling of God’s people today is seen in Hebrews in terms of the experience of the old covenant people of God in the wilderness.
