However, a visit to my blog would be much appreciated. And if you leave a comment on my blog I will reply.
Thanks for the post! I see Hebrews as written by Paul to prepare Jews (not gentiles) for the end of the age with the destruction of the Temple. Paul was key in providing a way for gentiles to gain full acceptance into the Body Of Christ, but he never gave up his adherence to the law. In Acts he states that “I am a Pharassee”. However, this option was soon to come to an end, so Paul has to provide a theological basis for “good Jews who have accepted Messiah” to move on after the Age of the Law. This - I believe - is the motive behind Hebrews.
The Messiah *is* the Law. There's no substitute. He supersedes all claimants. So much so, it's his name.
I hope anyone reading will remember my post.
God Bless America.
I just discovered the audio feature on my computer . . . . clicked it on and listened away (it was a gal with a British accent). . . Thanks so much for the post!
We are studying Hebrews in my Women’s Bible Study. I’m enjoying it, and I’m learning quite a bit. I don’t think I’ve ever really studied it.
It’s one of my favorite books we’ve studied.
BUMP! Well done.
Perhaps that's because the human who transcribed it wasn't more important than who is TRULY the author - the Holy Spirit. "Holy men of God spoke as they were carried along/moved by the Holy Spirit." (II Peter 1:21)
Atsa longa read. Will finish it manana, if my eyes hold out.
