OverviewThis volume presents a dialogue between historians, exegetes, and theologians on the background and key themes of the atonement in Hebrews. Presenting a range of differing perspectives and contributing to the renewed conversation between biblical and theological scholarship, the argument is structured in two parts: contexts and themes within Hebrews. Focusing on atonement not only in the Old Testament but also in the Greco-Roman world, and touching on themes such as sacrifice, plight and solution, and faith, these contributions shed light on the concept of the atonement in a directly scriptural way. The whole is a definitive collection of studies on the atonement in Hebrews that will be of service well beyond the confines of Hebrews’ specialists, a collection as important for what it says about the atonement and the 21st century church as for what it says about Hebrews.

And the way it sets side by side historical analysis, exegetical inquiry, and theological reflection is as rare as it is welcome. * Joel B. Green, Professor of New Testament Interpretation, Fuller Theological Seminary, USA * The sermon to the Hebrews has been, and remains, both a challenge for interpreters and a seemingly inexhaustible source of theological wisdom. This important book brings theologians and biblical scholars together to explore ways in which good interpretation informs theology and theology helps guide interpretation. It contains a treasure trove of insights that offer a deeper understanding of the sermon's compelling vision of Christ and the salvation he provides. This is a book to which I shall return again and again. * Thomas H. McCall, Professor of Biblical and Systematic Theology and Director of the Carl F. H.
