Pursuit of Perfection

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“In this engaging research on a significant term of the Epistle to the Hebrews, Seth Simisi draws out the eschatological dimensions of the τελειο- word group as used by the author of Hebrews. He shows how the 'perfection' motif points to a future fulfillment that is connected to provisions of the New Covenant. This is an important study of a key element for understanding the theological argument of Hebrews. It is well researched, cogently argued, and persuasively presented.”
