I was especially interested in this commentary for two main reasons:
1) Dr Allen has long advocated the position that Luke wrote Hebrews - this was his doctoral thesis many years ago. Now in this commentary, Dr Allen expounds on the authorship of Hebrews (one of the more thorough discussions I have read on the topic), and why it is that he believes Luke to be the author.
2) I have heard Dr Allen preach on some passages in Hebrews. He is a preacher and a professor of preaching. As such, he writes from a perspective, not simply of a scholar, but of a pastor and teacher.
As for the two main questions asked of Hebrews: Allen leans toward Luke as author, and does not take a clear stand on the meaning of the warning passages (the four basic views are: 1-genuine believers losing their salvation, 2-genuine believers losing reward, 3-unbelievers never making the full commitment to become saved, or 4-theoretical / hyperbole i.e. empty threats to motivate genuine believers).
