Some Comments on Writing Introductions with Special Attention to John
Byhenry November 29, 2014
I’m planning to start doing some discussion of Bible passages using Google Hangouts on Air during the coming year. Basically, I’m going to work through material I intend to use in Sunday School.

Modern Barriers to Understanding Hebrews
Byhenry June 13, 2016
[ncs_ad pname=’hebrews-ntl’] Despite my somewhat snippy comments in my last post, I found reading Luke Timothy Johnson’s introduction to Hebrews in his volume in the New Testament Library (pictured at left) quite helpful.
