Understanding the Basic Themes of Colossians, Philemon
|
|
“The notion of a crucified Lord was a scandal to the first-century world. Crucifixion was a public form of execution, and its cruelty was well known. For Jews, death by crucifixion meant that a person was under the curse of God, while pagans protested that it was sheer madness.502 To associate God with the world of suffering was therefore utterly inappropriate. But in spite of the offensive nature of Jesus’ suffering and death, that is precisely the way God has worked, and Hebrews gives it a central place. It was fitting503 that God should effect his glorious saving purposes through Christ’s sufferings.504”

“Clearly for Hebrews true conversion is marked by a godly diligence that not only characterizes the beginning of the Christian life but also perseveres in hope to the final day.”
