Introduction to the book
  • The author is the Holy Spirit (I Corinthians 2:13-14)
    • John 14:26; 16:13
    • The Holy Spirit inspired men with the very words to speak.

      • Hebrews 13:10

          • Jesus has a better name than the prophets.
          • Jesus is a better builder than Moses.
          • Jesus gives a better rest than Joshua.
          • Jesus is a better high priest than Aaron.
          • A superior workman turns out a superior product. Thus, the New Covenant is superior to the Old Covenant.
