Infinity and Hebrews are the multiple references to the concept of infinity in the Epistle to the Hebrews, more than 1500 years before infinity was accepted by mathematicians and philosophers. Greek thinkers viewed infinity with disdain.
Examples:
- Hebrews 11:12 (translated as "innumerable" by ESV)
- Hebrews 12:22 (translated as "innumerable" by ESV)
- "forever and ever" (meaning for infinite time) - twice, at Hebrews 1:8 and Hebrews 13:21
(add to list)
This Epistle also contains many references to "perfection", which is a concept similar to infinity.
