I like what you wrote about St. Paul writing Hebrews. I always beleived that.
Again, even so-called conservative evangelicals, almost universally reject Pauline authorship of Hebrews.
Why? - the language and some of the terminolgy are different.
How stupid! If one were to examine things I have written even on these boards, using the standards of egghead academics, there would be differences due to my mood, how busy I am, the nature of the topic, etc. So one MUST conclude that there are several BrotherAidenic writers. The bulk of the posts are by the authentic Aiden, but some of the later posts were obviously added by a later disciple of Aiden, or even a later generation influenced by the "school of Aiden."
Sounds pretty ridiculous doesn't it. But Bible "scholars" say this kind of stuff all the time with a straight face!
It even gets more ridiculous if one examined all my writings - what I write to my wife and kids, to relatives and friends, in reports and letters at work, in essays for teaching a church school class. One could arrive at a veritiable dozen or so different writers, based on differences of common vocabulary, ways of formulating ideas, use of certain idioms, phraseology, etc.
Here here to St. Gregory! Paul indeed wrote Hebrews!
