Summary

Explores the use of prosopological exegesis by the author of Hebrews in almost every major quotation of Scripture and offers detailed readings of key passages. This book shows that the author uses Scripture in a consistent way that develops his characterization of God - Father, Son, and Spirit - which results in a triune portrait of God in Hebrews.
