Hi Harold,
Koester's commentary is good. It certainly compares favorably to Lane's Word Commentary and Ellingworth in terms of offering a clear argument, but of course the other two are such great resources in so many ways.
I think that Koester's argument for a comprehensive rhetorical outline based on either deliberative or epedeictic rhetoric is ill-advised, but I don't let that disagreement get in the way of my appreciation.
He is part of the group that formed a new Hebrews session at SBL that met for the first time in Philadelphia last year.

Dear Cindy,
Sorry for two emails!

Hebrews is recognized as having a high quality of literary Greek along with
Luke-Acts and is hailed as the first Christian literary masterpiece by
Deissmann.

HH: Have you used Craig R. Koester's Anchor Bible
Commentary on Hebrews?
I am currently reading it and think it is good.
Yours,
