"Robert Cara's commentary on Hebrews is marked by clear and convincing exegesis, theological depth, and practical relevance.
"Thomas R. Schreiner
"
Cara has written an impressive commentary-deeply researched yet conversational in tone, theologically rich yet pastorally attuned-on one of the most important and difficult books of the Bible.
"Kevin DeYoung
"
Cara's footnotes demonstrate a thorough acquaintance with the relevant literature
(contemporary and historical), while his exposition provides readers with exegetically careful and theologically sound readings of the text. Highly recommended.

"Brandon D. Crowe
