Hebrews Commentary: Study God's Word Chapter-by-Chapter Alongside History's Great Theologians (Essential Bible Commentary)

We invite you to study Hebrews with us alongside Matthew Henry! Matthew Henry (1662–1714) was a Nonconformist minister and author who was born in Wales, but spent much of his life in England. Henry's commentaries are primarily exegetical, dealing with the scripture text as presented, with his prime intention being explanation, for practical and devotional purposes. Henry's Exposition gives the result of a critical account of the original as of his time, with practical application. It was considered sensible and stylish, a commentary for devotional purposes. Famous evangelical Protestant preachers such as George Whitefield and Charles Spurgeon used and heartily commended the work, with Whitefield reading it through four times – the last time on his knees. Spurgeon said that "[e]very minister ought to read it entirely and carefully through once at least.”
