Studies in Hebrews

After my retirement in December 2013, I became involved in a Tuesday morning men’s Bible Study at my church; West Cannon Baptist Church in Belmont, Michigan USA.

In September 2018, we began a study of the Epistle to the Hebrews. To start, I was team teaching this series with my friend Bob. That's why for the first 7 chapters, you will see notes only for the alternating sections I taught on. In the Spring of 2019, Bob stepped down from his teaching role, and I assumed responsibility for all of the remaining studies in Hebrews in chapters 8- 13.

What I am making available in this public forum is the notes for those studies I was responsible for. I have not done any editing to put these in more of a publishable or academic style form, but make them available “as is” typos and all.

For His glory,
