Another answer from our community:
Hebrews is an "unsigned" letter; its human authorship uncertain. Scholars have suggested Paul, Barnabas or Apollos as most likely to have penned the epistle. As with all The Bible, its true "author" was the Holy Spirit.

∙ 8y agoThe second century Church Fathers attributed the Epistle to the Hebrews to the Apostle Paul, although he clearly was not the real author. Apart from some late interpolations that give Hebrews the appearance of having been written by Paul, there is nothing in the book to suggest that he was the author, with the the style and theology differing very much from Paul's.
The Christology of Hebrews is quite primitive, suggesting that it was one of the earliest books in Christianity, thus limiting the potential authors. However the author remains anonymous.

A:We do not actually know who wrote Hebrews, although it clearly was written very early in Christian history.
