Richard D. Phillips (MDiv, Westminster Theological Seminary; DD, Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary) is the senior minister of Second Presbyterian Church of Greenville, South Carolina. The author of over forty books, he is coeditor of the Reformed Expository Commentary series, a trustee of Westminster Theological Seminary, and a council member of the Gospel Reformation Network.
Hebrews emphasizes that God still speaks about Christ and his
people through his written Word. Phillips's expository addresses
ring with that authenticity, whether by way of admonition or
assurance.--HYWEL JONES, Professor of Practical Theology,
Westminster Seminary, California
Richard Phillips's Hebrews is faithful to the text, committed to
confessional Reformed orthodoxy, and alert to practical
implications for the life of the church. Phillips keeps the focus
where it is for the writer of Hebrews on God's 'last days''
speaking 'in his Son.' This volume, which can be read with profit
by a wide audience, should serve to remedy the relative neglect of
this important New Testament book in the proclamation and life of
the churches of the Reformation. Along with the other volumes in
this series, this commentary should contribute to preaching and
teaching that more fully echo the whole counsel of God.--Richard B.
Gaffin Jr., Professor of Biblical and Systematic Theology,
Emeritus, Westminster Theological Seminary
The first liturgical reform of the Protestant Reformation was the
implementation of lectio continua expository preaching in Zurich in
1519. Sequential Bible exposition has been a hallmark of Reformed
Protestantism ever since. It is heartening to see the Reformed
Expository Commentary series emerging to encourage the continuation
of this great heritage of preaching. Richard D. Phillips is among
the most gifted young preachers of our day. In his hands, Hebrews
receives the kind of careful, scholarly, contemporary, and
practical exposition that is so desperately needed today.--TERRY
JOHNSON, Pastor, Independent Presbyterian Church, Savannah, Georgia
