A:The various translations of The Bible do not change who the original authors were, so it does not matter whether we read the King James Version, or any other English Bible. The Book of Hebrews was anonymous until late in the second century, when it began to be attributed to the Apostle Paul. That attribution is no longer accepted, other than by conservative Christians, because Hebrews so obviously differs from Paul's own writings. So, once again, we do not know who wrote the Epistle to the Hebrews.

Additional Comments:

In the early days of Christianity, only the Church at Alexandria strongly believed that Paul was the author of the Book of Hebrews. Tertullian postured that Barnabas wrote this book as he was a Levite, had a good quality use of Greek, and the parallel between Acts 4:36 and Hebrews 13:22. Not a very strong argument but one nonetheless.

What is important to remember with Scripture is that all is inspired by God and He uses who He wills to write it down. Therefore, the personality who is credited with recording the teaching is in no way as important as the words themselves.

Who wrote the Epistle to the Hebrews?

The Epistle to the Hebrews, or Book of Hebrews, was written anonymously. During the second century, it was attributed to the apostle Paul and as a result included in the New Testament, instead of being discarded and forgotten. It is now generally recognised that Hebrews was not written by Paul, because its theology and style are too different from his. We do not know who wrote the Book of Hebrews.
