This week, the first half of Paul's Epistle to the Hebrews.

This, if you've ever been in a situation where you feel kind of giddy, you're so excited with anticipation.

That's how we feel getting ready to jump into this epistle to the Hebrews.

It is loaded.

It is one of my favorite books in the New Testament.

And let me just, let me begin with a 30,000 foot overview of what the epistle to the

Hebrews is. You ready? That's it. The greater than sign. That's it. The entire book, what

it's showing is that Jesus Christ is greater than or superior to everything that the recipients of this letter hold near and dear to their hearts.

The Hebrews. We don't know where these people are living specifically. We don't know exactly when this epistle was written. We don't even know who specifically wrote it. It says the epistle of Paul the Apostle. But you'll notice it's one of the longer epistles of all of them contained in the New Testament. And yet it comes after Philemon, which is the shortest,

Romans being the longest of Paul's epistles, which tells us that even when the Bible was put together,

there was some uncertainty as to, is this really Paul?

Because it doesn't have some of the fingerprints of Paul, like his introduction at the beginning. Paul and

apostle unto you, he doesn't give his name ever the author. However, there have been so many

theories out there that maybe Luke wrote it, maybe Apollos wrote it, maybe Barnabas, or one of his

other missionary companions.

The reality is, is the teachings in this epistle, they're all, you could probably summarize this book as the summary of all of Paul's teachings in one book.
