Abstract

The authorship of the Book of Hebrews was attributed to Paul at the end of the second century. Unlike the many Epistles of Paul, Hebrews contains no formal salutation, which indicates that the Book was originally intended as a homily or treatise written for believers everywhere, as opposed to being addressed to one particular group.
