Thanks to Scott Mackie for helping me stay informed of developments in Hebrews research.  Also thanks to  Rob Bradshaw for his work, which includes occasionally posting new articles on Hebrews.

I have received and am expecting to receive some books on Hebrews to review in the upcoming weeks, so expect to see some reviews on here soon.

Also, I know someone who is selling Kenneth Schenck's monograph, Cosmology and Eschatology in Hebrews, for a really good price.
