The [[Epistle to the Hebrews]] is the nineteenth book of the [[New Testament]], and one of the greatest mysteries in all of intellectual history: the authorship of this brilliant work is completely unknown. There are not even any plausible theories about who wrote it. In contrast with the other epistles, it is distinctly unlike a letter; it is the only New Testament letter not introduced by the name of its author. | The [[Epistle to the Hebrews]] is the nineteenth book of the [[New Testament]], and one of the greatest mysteries in all of intellectual history: the authorship of this brilliant work is completely unknown.
