| | Hebrews, Epistle To The (International Standard Bible Encyclopedia) :: Bible Tools |
 | | (3) Supersession of the Aaronic priesthood (Hebrews 7:11-19). | | | Paul's formula of quotation is, "It is written" or "The scripture saith"; that of Hebrews, "God," or "The Holy Spirit," or "One somewhere saith." For Paul the Old Testament is law, and stands in antithesis to the New Testament, but in Hebrews the Old Testament is covenant, and is the "shadow" of the New Covenant. | | | Hebrews 2:2 parallel Galatians 3:19; Hebrews 12:22; Hebrews 3:14 parallel Galatians 4:25; Hebrews 2:10 parallel Romans 11:36; also with Ephesians; see yon Soden, Hand-Commentar, 3) are easily explicable either as due to the author's reading of Paul's Epistles or as reminiscences of Pauline phrases that were current in the churches. |

| | Epistle to the Hebrews - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The emphatic text of the epistle reiterates the view of Pauline Christianity that the new covenant has superseded the old. | | | Although the author is unknown, Hebrews has been dated to shortly after the Pauline epistles were collected and began to circulate, circa AD 95. | | | Its numerous references to Temple worship in the present tense have been used to date the epistle before the destruction of the Temple (AD 70), but the evidence is not conclusive. |

| | The Son in the Epistle to the Hebrews |
| | For the community of Hebrews, the Son Jesus Christ is the spiritual High Priest whose sacrifice in heaven has established a new covenant to supplant the old. | | | Hebrews provides strong evidence that independent expressions of belief in the existence of a divine Son and his role in salvation were to be found all over the landscape of the first century, with no central source or authority and little common sharing of doctrine and ritual. | | | The entire epistle is concerned with God’s revelation in scripture and the inaugurating of the new covenant. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Epistle to the Hebrews |
| | In this Epistle the words of Scripture are generally given as the utterance of God, at times also of Christ or the Holy Spirit. | | | In the second, chiefly hortatory, part of the Epistle, the exhortations to steadfastness in the Faith (x, 19-xii, 13), and to a Christian life according to the Faith (xii, 14-xiii, 17), are repeated in an elaborated form, and the Epistle closes with some personal remarks and the Apostolic salutation (xiii, 18-25). | | | The Epistle lays special emphasis on the spiritual power and effectiveness of Christ's sacrifice, which have brought to Israel, as to all mankind, atonement and salvation that are complete and sufficient for all time, and which have given to us a share in the eternal inheritance of the Messianic promises (i, 3; ix, 9-15, etc.). |

| | Christian Steps - Considering Jesus in the epistle to the Hebrews |
| | While Hebrews states that the angels are indeed glorious and have a unique relationship with God, this relationship is still not nearly as unique and glorious as Christ's position as the Son of God (Heb 1:5-2:8). | | | Bruce doubts the authenticity of the epistle's title due to the fact the epistle is never addressed in relation to its title until the last quarter of the second century, and believes the title to be that of a later editor who was under the influence of the Jewish appearance of this epistle's audience. | | | Hebrews argues that Melchizedek's order is greater than the Levitical order on the basis that Melchizedek spoke a blessing over Abraham, father of the Hebrew nation, of whom the tribe of Levi was quite literally: "still in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met him" (Heb 7:10). |

| | Pressing On to Maturity: The Pivotal Epistle - Hebrews - Chuck Missler - Koinonia House |
| | The Epistle to the Hebrews is one of the two greatest theological treatises of the New Testament. | | | As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction. | | | In Chapter 13 of Hebrews, there is a reference that notes that the writer of the Epistle to the Hebrews was accompanied by Timothy. |

| | The Epistle to the Hebrews, New Testament Introduction - Louis Berkhof |
| | Origen regards the thoughts of the Epistle as Paul's, but the language as that of a disciple of the great apostle, and finally comes to the conclusion that God only knows who wrote this letter. | | | The letter was not regarded as canonical in the Western church until the fourth century; in the Eastern church, however, the recognition of its apostolicity and canonicity went hand in hand. | | | It is not possible to say, how long before the destruction of Jerusalem the Epistle was written, but from the solemn tone of the writer, and from the fact that, according to him, the readers saw the day of the Lord approaching, 10:25, we infer that it was but shortly before that great catastrophe. |

| | The main point at the center of the epistle is that Jesus Christ is the eternal "high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens; a minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle" of God (Heb. | | | With its explication of the Atonement in terms of priesthood, oaths, covenants, and temple imagery, this entire epistle resonates and harmonizes with LDS concepts and practices. | | | This theme is developed throughout the epistle, showing how eternal salvation comes through the greatness, sufficiency, and supremacy of Jesus Christ. |

| | The writer of the Epistle seems to have feared that his readers were in danger of sliding away from Christianity back to Judaism, which they believed to be the religion of the OT. | | | Throughout the Epistle we encounter both implicit and explicit evidence that, for the author, the concept of different ages and a change in the ages inaugurated by Christ was of greatest significance. | | | For the writer of Hebrews, Jesus opened the way into the presence of God (9:11-12) and into the new age (1:2). |

| | The Hebrew disciples are encouraged to look back and reflect upon the faith and devoted service of these committed spiritual leaders; to keep the lives of these leaders fresh in their hearts and minds, and to follow their example. | | | In this passage from the epistle to the Hebrews the author makes four statements about those who were serving God as "leaders" among the brethren and the responsibilities of the disciples of Christ to them: | | | Even after their deaths, through the remembrance of their lives, they still had the ability to inspire others to be devoted disciples. |

| | NOTES ON THE EPISTLE TO THE HEBREWS |
| | This epistle of St. Paul, and both those of St. Peter, (one may add, that of St. James and of St. Jude also,) were written both to the same persons, dispersed through Pontus, Galatia, and other countries, and nearly at the same time. | | | The scope of it is, to confirm their faith in Christ; and this he does by demonstrating his glory. | | | It is agreed by the general tenor of antiquity that this epistle was written by St. Paul, whose other epistles were sent to the gentile converts; this only to the Hebrews. |

| | HEBREWS, NRSV NEW TESTAMENT |
| | The early church leaders Origen, Clement, and Tertullian, however, recognized the differences in style and theology between Hebrews and Paul's letters. | | | Clement argued that Luke translated Paul's Hebrew original into Greek and Origen suggested that a disciple of Paul wrote the letter based on Paul's notes. | | | Because so many of the standard historical introductory questions about Hebrews are uncertain, Hebrews can best be read by leaving those questions open and exploring the work as a distinctive Christian writing. |
