Bible Note: Greetings Pemican, You keep referring to Paul as the writer of Hebrews. Although it is a possibility that Paul did write Hebrews it is doubtful. The epistle itself does not support this claim. The style, vocabulary, and literary characteristics differ from the other books that Paul wrote. In addition, the writer of Hebrews includes himself among those who had received confirmation of Christ's message from others (2:3). Paul states in Galations 1:12 that he received his confirmation directly from God and not from men. Luke is also a possibility, however, Hebrews does not follow his style either. Other possibilities include Barnabas, Silas, Apollos, Phillip, Pricilla, Aquilla, and Clement of Rome. Whoever it was does refer to Timothy as "brother". prayon |
