Chrysostom's Homilies on the Letter to the Hebrews

John Chrysostom's 34 homilies on the letter to the Hebrews are a masterpiece of exegesis and homiletics. He seeks to explain clearly to his audience the meaning of the text and then apply its lessons to them in an interesting unlikely manner for their spiritual edification and encouragement. The significance of Chrysostom’s homilies for subsequent commentary on the letter is it's simplified by the decision of the editors of the Hebrews' volume in the ancient Christian commentary on scripture series to base their selections on Chrysostom't work.
