Studies in Hebrews

This 1989 series opens up the letter to the Hebrews as a message of faith, endurance, and hope for believers learning to let go of old patterns and embrace the fullness found in Christ. Brother Harry Tennant carefully traces how the Spirit used this epistle to help first-century disciples transition from the temple and the law to the living reality of Jesus as high priest and redeemer. Brother Tennant shows how Hebrews remains a letter for our times, urging us to hold fast in faith and to see in Christ the fulfillment of all God’s promises.

God Has Spoken

The series begins with the powerful truth that God, who once spoke in fragments through the prophets, has now spoken fully in His Son. Brother Tennant shows how this sets the tone for the whole letter: the old order has given way, and in Jesus we see God’s complete revelation and the foundation of our faith.

The Apostle and High Priest

This lecture explores Jesus as both apostle—sent from God—and high priest—bringing us back to God. Brother Tennant highlights the glory revealed in Christ, the brightness of God’s character, and the wonder of his appointment as mediator, superior even to angels and Aaron’s priesthood.

Redemption in Christ Jesus

Here the focus turns to the heart of salvation. Brother Tennant explains how Jesus, sharing our nature, overcame sin within it and triumphed by himself. Redemption is shown not as a transaction but as God’s victory in Christ, accomplished through obedience, suffering, and the grace of God.

The Uniqueness of the Vail

This study examines the veil of the tabernacle and its fulfillment in Christ. Brother Tennant explains how the old sacrifices, though commanded, were never God’s ultimate desire—He sought obedience and hearts turned to Him. The tearing of the veil in Christ reveals the new covenant, opening access to God through faith.

After the Order of Melchizedek

In this lecture, Brother Tennant shows how Jesus’ eternal priesthood, after the order of Melchizedek, makes the law and Aaronic sacrifices obsolete. With careful exposition, he demonstrates how Christ’s endless life and God’s oath establish him as the true and everlasting high priest.

Now Faith

The series concludes with a study of Hebrews 11, the great chapter on faith. Brother Tennant draws lessons from the faithful who trusted God through trial and promise, urging us to follow their example. He reminds listeners that we, too, walk by faith, awaiting the day when Christ will bring God’s purpose to completion.
