Superiority of the New Covenant: Hebrews
The book of Hebrews shows the superiority of Jesus' covenant over the old covenant. It uses many OT texts interpreted by rabbinical hermeneutics to communicate the message. Therefore, it is very important to interpret it in light of first century Judaism, not modern western thought. The author is unknown to us.The Jewish Christians are encouraged to leave the synagogue and identify publicly (fully) with the church. This book is filled with warnings against falling away, or returning to Judaism. Part of the "You Can Understand the Bible"TM series.
