Best Answer

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.

List the 14 books that Paul wrote This is the question that the teacher gave you There are 14 letters pawl wrote Beginning with the letter to the Romans list all 14 books Thanks?

The thirteen epistles that are almost certainly written by Paul, in order, are: Epistle to the Romans First Epistle to the Corinthians Second Epistle to the Corinthians Epistle to the Galatians Epistle to the Ephesians Epistle to the Philippians Epistle to the Colossians First Epistle to the Thessalonians Second Epistle to the Thessalonians First Epistle to Timothy Second Epistle to Timothy Epistle to Titus Epistle to Philemon although some theologians doubt that some letters (eg Ephesians) are written by him as the style of writing is different from the others.

Pauline authorship is rejected by modern scholarship and even in the early church its authorship was debated.

The Epistle to the Hebrews is not the same as the Hebrew scriptures. The Hebrew scriptures, known to Christians as the Old Testament, are the holy books of Judaism, also accepted as sacred by the Christian Churches.
