About the author

John Owen was an English theologian and "was without doubt not only the greatest theologian of the English Puritan movement but also one of the greatest European Reformed theologians of his day, and quite possibly possessed the finest theological mind that England ever produced" ("Owen, John", in Biographical Dictionary of Evangelicals, p. 494)

Reviews

[Dave Carrig · Rating 3 out of 5]

I can’t believe I’m giving Owen three starts but I just can’t go any higher on this one. Volume I is not an Exposition of Hebrews - its more of an introduction. I suppose the other volumes are expository butt this one isn’t. Parts are good and helpful but it is entirely too academic for me. If you are into that sort of thing and can understand, Hebrew, Greek, and Latin - then this might be up your alley. Just not my cup of tea.

That's quite a long book on Hebrews - to not even reach chapter one, verse one yet.
Preliminary essays and the like - the man knows how to bang on!
Well there were some interesting parts, it wasn't easy going but it was worth it.
Only six volumes to go!!
