Product Highlights

A Commentary in the Wesleyan Tradition

Based on the New International Version

Hebrews: A Biblical Commentary in the Wesleyan Tradition is part of a commentary series that interprets the books of the Bible from a Wesleyan perspective. While it is designed primarily with lay people in mind-Sunday school teachers, Bible study leaders, students of the Word-pastors will also find it most helpful. Following the New International Version, each book of the Bible is explained paragraph by paragraph, illuminating the key concepts of each passage and how they relate to our life and times today. This series offers insight into the Scripture that brings greater understanding of what the Bible says, its significance for our lives today, and further transformation into the images of Christ.

No other book of the New Testament draws so much of its imagery and textual basis from the Old Testament as does Hebrews. Learn who Melchizedek is and why Jesus is called our high priest as Cockerill leads you into the mystery, symbolism and practical application of Hebrews.

He is an ordained minister of the Wesleyan Church who served with his wife Rosa for nine years as a missionary in Sierra Leone, West Africa, where they were engaged in evangelism, teaching, administration, and medical ministries.

Professor Cockerill is one of the contributors to Four Views on the Warning Passages in Hebrews and his essay “Melchizedek without Speculation: Hebrews 7:1-25 and Genesis 14:17-24” appeared in A Crowd of Witnesses: The Theology of Hebrews in its Ancient Context. He wrote Guidebook for Pilgrims to the Heavenly City and also published “Guidebook for Pilgrims to the Heavenly City, Building Bridges or Syncretism: A Test Case,” in Contextualization and Syncretism: Navigating Cultural Currents.
