Hebrews for non-HebrewsLecture notesHebrews for non-HebrewsLecture notesIntroductionExegesis, in general: Definition of exegesis, its relation to hermeneutics; the exegetical question, the essential steps of an exegetical analysis. Exegetical papers and their place in communicating exegetical analyses.The importance of the contextHebrews as a book for Jews, that is, for hellenistic Jews.The authorVery probably the author is a man (cf. the masculine present participle of dihgeomai in με γ?ρ διηγο?μενον ? χρ?νο?, Heb. 11.32). Also, according to Heb. 2.2-3, the author seems to have had good, yet relatively distant relation to Christ and the first leaders of the Church, thus he belonged either, very possibly, to the first generation of Christians, or, also possibly, to the second generation (more probably so; however, both fit well with Paul’s own life and personality).He certainly is from Paul’s circle of friends, since he knows something of the testimony and lives of Christ and early Christian leaders and since he knows Timothy, one of Paul’s closest friends (Heb. 13.22). He is mentioning in Heb. 13.24 “greetings from those from Italy”, so there is a certain connection with Christians in Italy (there were a number of Christians who went to Italy, to Rome, for example, while having their primary residence somewhere else, like Aquilas and Priscilla, who were from Ephesus, yet visited and worked in Corinth and in Rome, as well; also the author could speak of Roman believers, as such, as well).Apart from that the author is quite close to Paul’s theology, as it can be found in the main Pauline epistles (Romans, 1-2 Corinthians, Galatians, Colossians, Ephesians, Philippians). Among the recurring theological themes one could find in Hebrews the theme of faith (pistiv), righteousness (dikaiosunh), perfection or maturity (teleiwthv), discipline (paideia), priesthood (ajrciereuv), sacrifices (qusia) etc. The list of possible authors includes Apollos (suggested by Luther), Barnabas (suggested by Tertullian, Jerome); Paul (suggested by Pantaenus, via Eusebius of Caesarea, via Clement of Alexandria; also by Theodore of Mopsuestia, Ephraem Syrus; Augustine), a secretary of Paul (Origen). Ellingworth says that the idea of Pauline authorship of Hebrews is now almost universally abandoned, yet this is not quite true. There are authors who would see this differently. The literary style is not Paul’s style (not as direct as his, nor as rude, at times, according to Origen; cf. William Lane), yet the theology is quite close to that of Paul.However, as Guthrie notes, even its theology is slightly different from Paul’s, although the author of the epistle does not disagrees with him… (Guthrie, Introduction, 673).Look at Ellingworth’s commentary. The author is certainly part of Paul’s circle of friends.He knows Timothy.He knows the leaders of the church.He is close to Paul’s theology… faith, covenant, suffering (although the author might favor different emphases on these concepts, in comparison with Paul).The audienceTrotter mentions several possible recipients: a group of converted priests in Jerusalem (Spicq), a group of leaders expelled from Rome (Manson), some believers at Qumran. Whoever they might have been they were likely a group of believers of Jewish descent, probably meeting in houses, who were severely under pressure to leave Christianity and turn to the Jewish Law.Q: What are Trotter’s arguments? See, Trotter’s gentile audience arguments:1.?????reference to families sharing the same flesh and blood (Heb. 2:14) and children’s duty to submit to their parents’ discipline (Heb. 12:5–11);2.?????the analogy of the field (Heb. 6:7–8);3.?????the contrast between milk and solid food (Heb. 5:12–14);4.?????the typological language concerning shadows and realities (Heb. 8:5; 9:23; 10:1);5.?????the use of the word στοιχε?α (Heb. 5:12); and6.?????the exhortation to be faithful in marriage (Heb. 13:4). Ellingworth discusses the very title, prov eJbraiouv. Q: what is the best way to translate this title and why?According to both Trotter and Ellingworth the readers were a mixed community, of both Jews and Gentile believers (possibly of earlier converts to Judaism, i.e. proselytes).Q: what argument do you find the most convincing, to this effect, and what argument do you find to be less convincing? The historical contextThe cultural contextStyle and GenreTrotter notes several stylistic, rhetoric elements in Hebrews indicating that the author of Hebrews benefitted from an elevated and thorough education in Greek language and rhetorics:Rhetoric featureReferenceAlliterationHeb. 1:1AnaphoraHeb. 11 (passim)AntithesisHeb. 7:18–21, 28; 10:11–12AssonanceHeb. 10:26–27AsyndetonHeb. 11:33–34, 37BrachylogyHeb. 12:24ChiasmHeb. 7:23–24; 2:17DiatribeHeb. 3:16–18EllipsisHeb. 12:25HendiadysHeb. 5:2HyperbatonHeb. 2:9IsocolonHeb. 1:3LitotesHeb. 4:15ParanomasiaHeb. 5:8RhythmReverse PaeonHeb. 1:1AnapestHeb. 1:6IambusHeb. 2:1TrocheeHeb. 12:8However, a comparison of Hebrews with Paul’s vocabulary from the undebated Pauline epistles (i.e. leaving aside the pastoral epistles that share a vocabulary of their own, specific), would emphasize striking differences as has been shown by Ellingworth (the first figures indicate Pauline use, the second indicate their presence in Hebrews).He finds relatively significant overlaps between the two only in the area of expressions of emotion (παρακαλ?ω 52/4, παρ?κλησι? 20/3), in terms related to life and death (cf. πιστε?ω 48/2, π?στι? 109/32, πιστ?? 16/5), power and conflict (?ρκωμοσ?α 0/4; ?μν?ω 0/7), related to the people of God (cf. πρεσβ?τερο? 0/1; see σπ?ρμα 16/3; κληρονομ?ω 6/4, κληρονομ?α 5/2, κληρονομ?? 7/3, συγκληρονομ?? 2/1; λα?? 11/13), liturgical terms (ε?σ?ρχομαι 4/17; κατασκευ?ζω 0/6; ?γι?ω 72/19 (τ? ?γιον/τ? ?για 0/5); α?μα 12/21; θυσ?α 5/15; καθαρ?ζω 2/4, καθαρισμ?? 0/1, καθαρ?? 1/1, καθαροτ?? 0/1; λειτουργ?ω 1/1, λειτουργ?α 3/2, λειτουργικ?? 0/1, λειτουργ?? 3/2; ε?λογ?ω 7/7, ε?λογ?α 9/2, προσφορ? 2/5; προφ?τη? 13/2), in the aria of salvation theology (?πολ?τρωσι? 7/2; ?παγγελ?α 24/14; ?πουρ?νιο? 11/6; μετ?νοια 3/3; συνε?δησι? 14/5; ?γγελο? 12/13; α??ν 29/15; ?μαρτ?νω 15/2, ?μαρτ?α 61/25, ?μαρτωλ?? 6/2; γ? 14/11; ε?ρ?νη 39/4; ?λπ?? 32/5, ?λπ?ζω 15/1; ?ργον 48/9; ?γ?ομαι 9/6; καρδ?α 50/11; κληρονομ?ω 6/4, κληρονομ?α 5/2, κληρ?νομο? 7/3; μαρτυρ?ω 6/8, μαρτ?? 6/2; μ?νω 13/6; πειρ?ζω 7/5, πειρασμ?? 3/1; σωτηρ?α 16/7; υ??? 41/24; ?πομ?νω 2/4, ?πομον? 13/2. The author of Hebrews has words he likes in particular, such as ?δ?νατο? 2/4; ?παξ 3/8, ?φ?παξ 2/3; κρε?σσων/κρε?ττων 4/13, and even words he coined for the purpose of his style and argument, that cannot be found in other Greek writings (cf. ?γενεαλ?γητο? 7:3; α?ματεκχυσ?α 9:22; ε?περ?στατο? 12:1; μισθαποδοσ?α 2:2, 10:35, 11:26; μισθαποδ?τη? 11:6; πρ?σχυσι? 11:28; συγκακουχ?ομαι 11:25; τελειωτ?? 12:2). Letter or sermon?Hebrews displays certain signs of a letter: it start with a careful prologue, like 1 John, with a proemium (1.1-4), has a good rhetoric structure.The structureGenerally speaking, one can notice a two part structure of this epistle: I. Theology: 1:1-10:18, II. Exhortation, 10:19-13:17As a letter, Hebrews displays a specific format, yet without any praescriptio, i.e., letter introduction (which did include the mention of the writer: superscriptio, of the addressee: adscriptio, and a short greeting, salutatio);proemium (short presentation, 1:1–4) narratio (outline of content, 1:5–2:16)propositio (theme, 2:17–18)probatio (arguments, 3:1–12:29) peroratio (conclusions and advice, 13:1–21) conclusio, postscriptum (final words, 13:22–25)There might be present a certain internal parallelism (chiasmus):Introduction (1:1-4)A. Eschatology: Jesus and the angels (1:5--2:18)? B. Ecclesiology: Jesus is the high priest (3:1--5:10) C. Worship: Jesus is the true sacrifice (5:11--10:39)? B'. Ecclesiology: faith and perseverance (11:1--12:13)A'. Eschatology: holiness and eternal inheritance (12:14--13:19)? Conclusion (13:20-25).However, such parallels might be a little too eisegetical in nature.In terms of main arguments, the letter addresses three main issues:Introduction (1:1–4) Argument 1, Jesus is superior to angels and to OT leaders (Moses, Josua, prophets, 1:5–4:13)Argument 2, Jesus is the real high priest, more important than Aaron and Levi (4:14–10:18).Argument 3, Jesus leads the believer to a victorious life of faith and holiness, of perseverance amidst persecutions (10:19–13:19)Conclusion (13:20–21)Ending (13:22–25)Spread within the argument, there are 5 main warning sections:1st warning: do not neglect such a great salvation (2:1-4), Δι? το?το δε? περισσοτ?ρω? προσ?χειν... μ?ποτε παραρυ?μεν.2nd warning: do not harden your hearts, nor be unfaithful (3:12-13), Βλ?πετε, ?δελφο?, μ?ποτε ?σται ?ν τινι ?μ?ν καρδ?α πονηρ? ?πιστ?α?3rd warning: you should have been teachers, by now (5:11-6:12), κα? γ?ρ ?φε?λοντε? ε?ναι διδ?σκαλοι δι? τ?ν χρ?νον4th warning: beware disobedience (10:18-39), ?κουσ?ω? γ?ρ ?μαρταν?ντων ?μ?ν μετ? τ? λαβε?ν τ?ν ?π?γνωσιν τ?? ?ληθε?α?, ο?κ?τι περ? ?μαρτι?ν ?πολε?πεται θυσ?α,5th warning: Listen to God (12:15, 18-29, cf. 25): Βλ?πετε μ? παραιτ?σησθε τ?ν λαλο?νταQ: Indentify the verbs in the warning passages. How many verbs are used in the imperative mood?Another possible structure highlights, in a pauline manner, two main parts, i.e. a theological and a practical one:I. Theology: Christ is superior (1:1-10:18)A. Christ is superior to the OT prophets (1:1-4)B. Christ is superior to angels (1:5-2:18)First warning, 2:1-4C. Christ is superior to Moses (3:1-4:13)Second warning, 3:7-4:13D. Christ is superior to Aaron’s priesthood (4:14-7:28)Third warning, 5.11-6:8E. Christ is superior to the Law covenant (8:1-10:18)II. ExhortationA. Participate to the new altar, of Jesus (10:19-31)Fourth warning, 20.26-31B. Suffer persecution (10:32-39)C. Follow the example of the heroes of faith, (11:1-40)D. Accept God’s discipline (12:1-29)Fifth warning, 12:15, 18-29 (25)E. Live up to your confession of faith (13:1-17)III. Final teachings, greetings (peroratio, salutatio, 13:18-25)A. Prayer request (13:18-19)B. Prayer for readers (13:20-21)C. Final advice (13:22) D. News about Timothy (13:23)E. Final blessings, greetings (13:24-25)The theology of HebrewsAs John Calvin wrote “there is … no book in the Holy Scriptures which speaks so clearly of the priesthood of Christ, so highly exalts the virtue and dignity of that only true sacrifice which He offered by His death, so abundantly treats of the use of ceremonies as well as of their abrogation, and, in a word, so fully explains that Christ is the end of the law.”ΠΡΟΣ ΕΒΡΑΙΟΥΣ (UBS-4th)Chapter 1, Commentary Hebrews 1Introduction of the main themes,Explanation, Exegesis on Psa. 2WarningExegesis of Psa. 81.1-4, Introduction to the main themes of the letter / sermon.The Prophets and the SonUltimately, God has spoken by his Son, after he spoke in many various ways and through many, various persons or beings. Writing in very elegant style, the author composed here a quite classical introduction, well rounded rhetorically, in which he mentions, in a nut-shell, the majore themes of the letter. Among them one should mention the progressive revelation of God’s plans through prophets, the climactic importance of the Son’s life and message, the difference between the times of the fathers and the last days period, at the present. The Son is heir of the Universe (of everything: the theme of heirs/inheritance this is a human-related theme of utmost importance in the Bible), and he is superior to angels, for his nature – or Name – is higher than theirs (being divine he has created everything and he is the only genuine representation of God’s nature and person in the material world), and for being sitted at the right hand of the heavenly greatness (of God’s glory) as main representative of God. This particular position was obtained after he has performed the cleasing of sins for the whole humanity.Exegesis: is this sort of an epistolary proemium?1?Πολυμερ?? κα? πολυτρ?πω? π?λαι ? θε??

This is an introduction, obviously. A very inteligent and complex introductory statement. Then, there comes the evidence. Maybe it is a bit surprising that the author speaks first of all, so much of angels. However, for the first century Jews it made sense. The hermeneutical question (h.q.) and its answer (h.a.):What is the text saying to the contemporary reader?The divine author lets the contemporary reader to see in the text a worthy message and example, pointing out that whenever anyone might feel under pressure to leave Christ aside and turn to the Jewish religion of the Law (cf. rabbinic Christianity, 7th day Adventists, Jehovah’s Witnesses), or being ready to consider Jesus as one among other great religious leaders or priests (like angels or divine men, as in New Age, Mormonism, Hinduism, Islam, etc.), we should remember that Jesus is unique, the ultimate revelation of God, that he is divine and human, as well, being creator of all, eternal God, kingly Son and absolute ruler – both as God and as a human.1.5-14, The Son is superior to the angels (I)Exegesis: why is the Son superior to the angels?This topic is discussed in a two wing section, the two parts being 1.5-14 and 2.5-18, and between them being included 2.1-4, a warning section.Modern Christians find this section, quite usually, difficult to understand because there is difficult to see the point of comparing the Son with angels. Actually, there is a larger contrast here, one between humankind and angels, and one between the Son (seen as God’s Son and as the Messiah) and the angels. The two parallels have something or rather, better, someone, in common, the Son of God. The context of the parallels has two levels, an earthly one and a heavenly one, and these parallels are seen in wide perspective, including the past, the present and the future of mankind and of the whole Universe.One major point that usually goes unnoticed is the fact that angels were considered the ones through whom the Law has been given on Mt. Sinai. Demonstrating that they are inferior to Christ, amount to showing that Jesus’ covenant is more important than the Sinai covenant.The Incarnation is holding an important place, too. The issue here is the nature of the Messiah and his links with humanity. The kind of language used in Bible for Jesus is the God language (Creator language, worshipping language), and the Son language of the Incarnation, and as well the Universal-King language, it is not simply the creature language used to describe the angels.The angels are being made, or created in order to serve and worship God. Among their duties is to help (or minister to) the humans. Only the Son and the humans are the heirs of the world to come, the Son being King over the entire Universe (there is no heir language used for the angels).The scripture describes the angels with creature language, whilst the Son – Messiah is described with sonship language, with creator language, and with human king language.It is important to note, also, that the author of Hebrews uses a Messianic theology based on David’s Psalms in order to clarify and discuss the meanings of the revelations in the Pentateuch (Genesis, Exodus, Numbers, Leviticus, Deuteronomy).The Son is Superior to Angels – I: sonship language (is born not made), power language (is exalted by God) and worshipping language (deserves worship).5?*?Τ?νι γ?ρ ε?π?ν ποτε τ?ν ?γγ?λων,To whom, thus, said [he] ever, of the angels,Υ??? μου ε? σ?,You are my son, Ps. 2.7-8?γ? σ?μερον γεγ?ννηκ? σε;Today I have given birth to you…κα? π?λιν,and further?γ? ?σομαι α?τ? ε?? πατ?ρα, I will be to him a father, 2 Sam. 7.14, 2 Cron. 17.12κα? α?τ?? ?σται μοι ε?? υ??ν;and he will be for me a son.6?*??ταν δ? π?λιν ε?σαγ?γ? τ?ν πρωτ?τοκον ε?? τ?ν ο?κουμ?νην, λ?γει,And when he brings the firstborn into the world [he] says:Κα? προσκυνησ?τωσαν α?τ? π?ντε? ?γγελοι θεο?.And let worship him all the angels of God.1.6 Psalm 97.7, Deut. 32.43 (LXX)1,7 Psalm 104,4.1,8-9 Psalm 45,7-8.1,10-12 Psalm 102,26-28.Exegesis: study the use of the OT in the NT: Angels are described through a creation language… (also an exegetical problem)7?*?κα? πρ?? μ?ν το?? ?γγ?λου? λ?γει,And [whilst] to the angels says he,? ποι?ν το?? ?γγ?λου? α?το? πνε?ματα[God] is making his angels [into] spirits / windsκα? το?? λειτουργο?? α?το? πυρ?? φλ?γα,and his servants [into] flames of fire.The Son is described with divine, kingship and sonship language 8?πρ?? δ? τ?ν υ??ν,To the Son [he says]? θρ?νο? σου ? θε?? ε?? τ?ν α??να το? α??νο?,Your throne, God, is from eternity to eternity.κα? ? ??βδο? τ?? ε?θ?τητο? ??βδο? τ?? βασιλε?α? σου2.and the scepter of justice is the sceptre of your kingdom.9?*??γ?πησα? δικαιοσ?νην κα? ?μ?σησα? ?νομ?αν?[since] you loved righteousness and hated lawlesness.δι? το?το ?χρισ?ν σεc?? θε??d?? θε?? σουefor this [reason] has annointed you God, your God,?λαιον ?γαλλι?σεω? παρ? το?? μετ?χου? σου.[with] oil of rejoicing above [more than] you companions.10?κα?,AndCreator - language for the Son…Σ? κατ? ?ρχ??, κ?ριε, τ?ν γ?ν ?θεμελ?ωσα?,You from the beginning are, lord, [you] laid the earth foundationsκα? ?ργα τ?ν χειρ?ν σο? ε?σιν ο? ο?ρανο??and the work of your hands are the heavens.11?α?το? ?πολο?νται, σ? δ? διαμ?νει?,They are perishing, [yet] you will last [always]…κα? π?ντε? ?? ?μ?τιον παλαιωθ?σονται,and all like a garment will grow old12?*?κα? ?σε? περιβ?λαιον ?λ?ξει?3?α?το??,and you will roll them like a mantle,?? ?μ?τιον?κα?4??λλαγ?σονται?like a garment you will change [it].σ? δ? ? α?τ?? ε?you are the same [one]κα? τ? ?τη σου ο?κ ?κλε?ψουσιν.and your years will not end.King-like language for the Son, as the Messiah, i.e. the human leader acknowledged by God…13?*?πρ?? τ?να δ? τ?ν ?γγ?λων ε?ρηκ?ν ποτε,To whom has he ever said, of angels,Κ?θου ?κ δεξι?ν μου,Be sited at my right side?ω? ?ν θ? το?? ?χθρο?? σου ?ποπ?διον τ?ν ποδ?ν σου;funtil indeed [I] will place your enemies footstolll under you feet?Exegesis: angels and humans: only humans are heirs…14?*?ο?χ? π?ντε? ε?σ?ν λειτουργικ? πνε?ματα ε?? διακον?ανAre not all serving spirits for ministering ?ποστελλ?μενα δι? το?? μ?λλοντα? κληρονομε?ν σωτηρ?αν;gbeing sent, for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?Structure, Hebrews 11.Introduction: the prophets and the son, 1.1-4From old times to the new “old days”The prophets and a / the SonThe shining visible glory and the visible inprint/mark/footprintFrom the divine creation to the eternal inheritanceAngels – a term of comparison, not superiors, rather deputies.Πολυμερ?? κα? πολυτρ?πω? π?λαι ?

Comparison with angels: Jewish tradition said that at the Sinai, Moses and the people were listening not only to God, but also – and mainly, to the words of angels.2.1-4, Warning: do not neglect this great salvation of JesusAfter a first argument that the Son is greater than angels (implying that his covenant is greater than the covenant of the Law), there comes a first warning section, in 2.1-4. The warning is based on a re-iteration of the punishment received by those who did not obey the first covenant, arguing that in a similar way, if not more, will be punished those who disobey the son. Christians should, thus, pay attention to they way they listen to God’s new commands, so that they should find themselves drifting away, progressively and unnoticed (2.1).In the same way those who did not listen to the angels, at the Sinai, were punished, likewise people not listening to Jesus would be angels by not listening to Jesus would be disciplined. Here, the one who gives the revelation is greater, because it was given by the Lord, confirmed by the first hand witnesses, and then by the signs, miracles, and the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Accordingly, this is a salvation much greater than the one presented by angels on mount Sinai.It is interesting to note in what words is presented the certainty of our salvation: it has been taught by the Lord, confirmed by witnesses, further confirmed by God through signs, miracles and gifts imparted by the Spirit, according to his will. This stands somehow in contrast with the fact that the word of the angels at Sinai has been confirmed and made steadfast (or reinforced) by the God’s rightful justice for those who were disobedient.1?Δι? το?το δε? περισσοτ?ρω? προσ?χειν ?μ?? το??For this reason we must even more keep ?κουσθε?σιν, μ?ποτε παραρυ?μεν.? those things we heard, lest we should go astray (drift away)…2. ε? γ?ρ ? δι? ?γγ?λων λαληθε?? λ?γο? ?γ?νετο β?βαιο? κα?

Ps.8 and the history of an idea (Iov, Ps.8, Ps.139, Heb.2).This section represent an exegesis on Psa. 8, another example of the Davidic messianism of the author of Hebrews. It starts with a re-iteration of the issue of eternal or future inheritance: the world of the future will be inherited by mankind.The argument builds then on the Psa. 8.5-7, a text that allows an interesting study on theme transformation or development in the Bible. The text appears for the first time in Job, 7.17-18.17 τ? γ?ρ ?στιν ?νθρωπο?, ?τι ?μεγ?λυνα? α?τ?ν ? ?τι προσ?χει? τ?ν νο?ν ε?? α?τ?ν 18 ? ?πισκοπ?ν α?το? ποι?σ? ?ω? τ? πρω? κα? ε?? ?ν?παυσιν α?τ?ν κρινε???Then, in Psa. 8.5-6, the theme takes this form:5 τ? ?στιν ?νθρωπο?, ?τι μιμν?σκ? α?το?, ? υ??? ?νθρ?που, ?τι ?πισκ?πτ? α?τ?ν? 6 ?λ?ττωσα? α?τ?ν βραχ? τι παρ’ ?γγ?λου?, δ?ξ? κα? τιμ? ?στεφ?νωσα? α?τ?ν?And, then, finally, in Heb.2.6b-8. Initially the question thus formulated was rather coming as a protest from Job’s part, in relation to the way God checked his life and carefully verified him, in order to reward or punish his acts, thoughts, and feelings.For David, this kind of a formula becomes a good opportunity to ask about man’s fate and destiny, compared with that of the angels.The author of Hebrews is focusing rather on David’s treatment of the theme, but brings further elements of insight and discussion, applying it to Jesus as the Messiah. Also, when discussing the meaning of “a little lower”, the author seems to favor a temporal reading “for a little while”, instead of the equally valid understanding of this as being position related, i.e. “a little bit lower”. Psalm 8 becomes then a short review of Jesus’ whole life: a little while lower than angels, but then, ascended up in glory, after suffering the cross. Christ is seen as the representative of humankind, in which Psa. 8 is already fulfilled, since, he has ascended to glory and waits now to see his enemies being placed at his feet. The theology of the cross and of Christ’s suffering and death is linked to these verses, as well, as an explanation of the “little lower” formula. Christ was placed a little lower than angels, during his earthly life, and mostly during his suffering on the cross, in order to be given glory and honour afterwards because he has tasted death for all. The reasons of his suffering are given in vss. 9-10: it was fitting or proper for him, the one who will lead many sons to glory, to be perfected through suffering.The world to come, the angels and the humans.The history of a question: Job, Psalms, Hebrews.5?Ο? γ?ρ ?γγ?λοι? ?π?ταξεν τ?ν ο?κουμ?νην τ?ν μ?λλουσαν, For not to the angels has been subjected the world to comeπερ? ?? λαλο?μεν.?6?διεμαρτ?ρατο δ? πο? τι? λ?γων,about which we are speaking; it has been confirmed where it saysΤ? ?στιν ?νθρωπο? ?τι μιμν?σκ? α?το?,what is man to remember him? υ??? ?νθρ?που ?τι ?πισκ?πτ? α?τ?ν;the son of man, to be concerned with him7??λ?ττωσα? α?τ?ν βραχ? τι παρ? ?γγ?λου?,He placed him for a short time lower than angels.δ?ξ? κα? τιμ? ?στεφ?νωσα? α?τ?ν1,with glory and honour did you crown him.8?**?π?ντα ?π?ταξα? ?ποκ?τω τ?ν ποδ?ν α?το?.bEverything you subjected under his feet.?ν τ? γ?ρ ?ποτ?ξαι [α?τ?]2?τ? π?ντα ο?δ?ν ?φ?κεν α?τ?regarding the subjection to him, this “all” does not leave to him?νυπ?τακτον. ν?ν δ? ο?πω ?ρ?μεν α?τ? τ? π?ντα[anything] not subject.

Makes the transition towards the comparison section between the Son and the angelsChapter 3, CommentaryThe theme of Jesus’ superiority over Moses and Joshua (a gospel-like theme)Chapter 3 and 4 leave aside the comparison between Jesus and the angels and go further to compare Jesus with the main leaders of Israel in the past, with those credited to have started the Jewish religion and who led the nation, through the wilderness, into the land of Canaan, that is, with Moses and with Joshua.The parallel with Moses: the son vs servant theology (a Johannine overtone?)The parallel with Moses is very well focused, in 3.1-6, and makes a distinction between the two based on responsibility and nature (or status). Moses was given a responsibility over “his house” (i.e. Israel, the house of God, or the house – i.e. the people, of Moses) as servant and served well. By comparison, Jesus was enthrusted with a responsibility for the whole of “his house” (of Jesus, his house being us, the Church, for the author of Hebrews), as son of the father to whom the whole house belonged, as creator.Jesus is superior to Moses, the pleion theme1?*??θεν, ?δελφο? ?γιοι, κλ?σεω? ?πουραν?ου μ?τοχοι, κατανο?σατε τ?ν ?π?στολον κα? ?ρχιερ?α τ?? ?μολογ?α? ?μ?ν ?ησο?ν,?2?πιστ?ν ?ντα τ? ποι?σαντι α?τ?ν ?? κα?

The key word is Today and the author makes an interesting word play with this term, in chs. 3-4. From 3.12-4.16 one can notice a warning section which, however, is of a mixed nature, because it continues the argument about “today”, started in 3.7-11.The author argues that Israel, the Israel that got out of Egypt, although being blessed and called to enter Canaan, they did not enter there, because did not listen to God’s good news (Ex. 17.7; Num. 20.2-5). The only escape provided by the author is that, through the words of David, God gives (or gave) the people a new chance, a new “today”, as shown in Ps. 95.7-11, a passage with a major pivotal value in the argument in chs. 3-4. This “today” (shmeron) is not the 7th day of creation, is not a new chance to conquer, in a new way, the land of Canaan (that generation has perished, anyway, in the wilderness), yet it is a new today (shmeron, hJmera), a day of salvation through Jesus. The hebrew text of Ps. 95.7b, introduces God’s angry speech in 95.8, by saying emphatically “Today (ha-yom) if you to his voice would listen…” (????????? ?????????????? ????????????) This “day” that preceeds the quotation of the divine anger, is the basis of God’s mercy. The quotation of divine anger (95.8-11) is taken as voice of the past and a warning for the present and the future which should not be valid again… if the chance of “today” is well understood.Both 3.12 and 4.1 warn the reader that this new day could be neglected, however, and not properly received or used, either, with even harder, or harsher consequences. As 4.7b shows, the author is building heavily on the theology of David psalms, a davidic messianic type of theology. Because of his mention of “today”, the author builds a curageous argument, based on the divine inspiration of Scripture.

Actually, in ch. 5-7 one can see what kind of high priest is Jesus, in comparison with Aaron and Levi, on the one hand, and with Melchisedek on the other hand, whilst ch. 8-10 focus on Jesus’ ministry as high priest. Jesus the Great High Priest14?*??χοντε? ο?ν ?ρχιερ?α μ?γαν διεληλυθ?τα το?? ο?ρανο??, ?ησο?ν τ?ν υ??ν το? θεο?, κρατ?μεν τ?? ?μολογ?α?.?14.We should thus keep to our faith (confession), since we are having such a great high priest who has entered the heavens.15?*?ο? γ?ρ ?χομεν ?ρχιερ?α μ? δυν?μενον συμπαθ?σαι τα?? ?σθενε?αι? ?μ?ν, πεπειρασμ?νον δ? κατ? π?ντα καθ? ?μοι?τητα χωρ?? ?μαρτ?α?.15. We do not have a high priest who is not able to sympathise with our weaknesses, since he was tested in all things in similar way to us, without sin, however.?16?*?προσερχ?μεθα ο?ν μετ? παρρησ?α? τ? θρ?ν? τ?? χ?ριτο?, ?να λ?βωμεν ?λεο? κα? χ?ριν ε?ρωμεν ε?? ε?καιρον βο?θειαν.h16.

First, a priest represents the people before God and he is one of these people. He brings sacrifices for sins, including for his own, however, and shows compassion for those lacking understanding and caught up in heresies. The general requirements of the high priest person and ministry:1?Π?? γ?ρ ?ρχιερε?? ?ξ ?νθρ?πων λαμβαν?μενο? ?π?ρEvery high priest is taken from [among] the people in order?νθρ?πων καθ?σταται τ? πρ?? τ?ν θε?ν, ?να προσφ?ρ?to stand on the behalf of people in front of God, to bring δ?ρ? τε κα? θυσ?α? ?π?ρ ?μαρτι?ν,?2?*?μετριοπαθε?ν gifts and sacrifices for sins, showing compassionδυν?μενο? το?? ?γνοο?σιν κα? πλανωμ?νοι?, ?πε? being able [to] to those who are ignorant and mistaken, because κα? α?τ?? περ?κειται ?σθ?νειαν?3?*?κα? δι? α?τ?ν also [he] himself is subject to weakness, and becouse of itSee 5.2, 12.1?φε?λει, καθ?? περ? το? λαο?, ο?τω? κα? περ? α?το?he must, like for the people, likewise for himselfπροσφ?ρειν περ? ?μαρτι?ν.a?4?*?κα? ο?χ ?αυτ? τι? λαμβ?νειto bring [sacrifice] for sins. And does not himself take this τ?ν τιμ?ν ?λλ? καλο?μενο? ?π? το? θεο? καθ?σπερ honour but he is called by God, likewise κα? ?αρ?ν.balso Aaron was.Christ’s priesthood – that is the priesthood of the Messiah, is similar, but not identical to the levitical priesthood, as the following verses will demonstrate. The Christ / Messiah has also been called by God, yet forever – not for a generation, to this priesthood, according to the model shown in Abraham’s meeting with Melchisedek. The Messiah priest does represent people in front of God, in a slightly different way. Although he was a Son, he learned through suffering, and was made perfect, he prayed and intercessed to God during his earthly life, and was listened (did he intercessed for himself or on the behalf of people?).In order to present and justify his priesthood, the author makes a parallel between Jesus and Melchisedek. According to the Law, Jesus could not be a priest, for he was not a Levite, he was not in the genealogical line of Aaron. He was, instead, from Judah. The only chance for him to be a priest was if there was another priesthood. As it is, there was another type of priesthood, that of Melchisedek, and God declared him, through David’s psalms, to be just such a priest. Moreover, this priesthood is greater than the levitical priesthood, since Abraham honored Melchisede by paying taxes to him and by accepting to be blessed by him. Moreover, this priesthood was not based on a genealogy, but on a heavenly decision, and could not be actually passed on, it was non-transferrable. It is possible that Melchisedek was a pre-incarnated Christ, or somebody else, a venerable, unique figure, possibly Shem. Anyway, his existence was compared with that of God’s son – and this does not necessarily mean that he was indeed, God’s son. In this case, he did not transmit his priesthood to anybody, being unique in kind (and then, he died). Jesus, then, being a priest according to the model of Melchisedek (and the text does not say he was Melchisedek, and thus, the same type of priest, yet it says he is a priest of the type of Melchisedek…), is indeed unique – and he dies not; he is, instead, immortal, eternal, divine, and this is how his priesthood is not passed over to anybody.5?*?Ο?τω? κα? ? Χριστ?? ο?χ ?αυτ?ν ?δ?ξασεν γενηθ?ναιSimilarly, Christ also did not himself glorified becoming?ρχιερ?α ?λλ? ? λαλ?σα? πρ?? α?τ?ν,a high priest but one has spoken [part] to himΥ??? μου ε? σ?, You are my son?γ? σ?μερον γεγ?ννηκ? σε?
