致 谢
承蒙多人的协助，本注释才得以完成。笔者特别要对以下这些人表示感谢：
约翰·惠特科姆博士（Dr. John C. Whitcomb）审阅了全稿，并对本注释的内容及风格提出宝贵的意见。
约翰·戴维斯博士（John J. Davis）在他的Moses and the Gods of Egypt一书出版之前，不但慷慨地允许笔者使用，而且还提供一些图片，并给出很多有益的建议。
格雷斯神学院（Grace Theological Seminary）的图书馆助理——罗伯特·伊巴赫先生（Mr. Robert D. Ibach, Jr.），在笔者查找参考文献方面给予诸多帮助，而且还绘制了会幕的平面图。
在格雷斯神学院历届与笔者一道学习希伯来书的学生们，他们在完善本注释的解经方面提供了不可估量的贡献。
前 言
希伯来书因诸多显著的特征，在圣经学者心目中占有特殊的地位。从很早时期，这封书信的作者就成了一个谜，虽说他本人丝毫没有想对读者隐藏自己，因为他请他们为自己祷告、为他能够亲自拜访他们祷告（13:18、19）。对于认真的学者来说，关于这封书信所涉及的第一读者位于哪里、写作时间以及促成这封信的特殊背景，远比新约其他书卷的许多问题大得多。
这封令人瞩目的书信包括新约中关于基督是信徒的大祭司最完整的讨论。在旧约中，麦基洗德只在两个极短的段落中一闪而过，但在希伯来书他却是论述的一个重点，构成了长达三章内容的讨论基础。书中关于基督超越性既娴熟又有系统的论证，是任何其他新约作者无法相比的。文中的论述逻辑严密，显示出作者有条理的思维，紧紧地抓住了基督真理的核心，让每一位圣经学者都受益于他。信中对旧约的应用恰到好处，有些关于预表的真知灼见尤为突出。另外，在书信各处出现的告诫，语气极为严厉，足以使最好的诠释者感到压力重重。
然而令人惊讶的是，人们对希伯来书的认识甚少。很多基督徒只知道“信心的伟人”那一部分（11章）和几句容易背诵的经文（例如4:16，13:8）。我们必须认识和留心这本书恢弘的论述和激励人心的挑战——“出到营外，就了他去”。
我诚挚地希望这本希伯来书注释可以帮助读者对书中的重要问题有更清楚的理解。每一段讨论的开头，我都使用经文的直译，目的是帮助读者了解作者的思想。我通过采用这种经文的直译而不是更为流行的意译，努力将经文中诠释的元素减到最少，而将诠释留在注释当中。
如果神喜悦使用我的努力来深化读者对这卷书的理解，增强他们对那位“献了一次永远的赎罪祭”及“替他们祈求”的基督的信心，我的劳苦就得到了丰厚的回报。
