Contexte historique

The Book of Hebrews was written by an unknown author to encourage Jewish Christians facing persecution. It emphasizes Jesus' role as a superior high priest and the superiority of his teachings over the old covenant laws. The original audience would have understood this in the context of their own struggles with faith under pressure.
