Ken Schenck gives a summary of his paper delivered at the panel discussion on Hebrews at the recent midwest regional of the SBL: The Riddles of Hebrews.
The title of this blog is taken from the opening words of the Greek text of the Book of Hebrews and may be translated "in many and various ways" (NRSV). This blog will explore the many and various ways in which the Book of Hebrews has been interpreted throughout the centuries.
Expect to see resources on Hebrews, reviews and summaries about articles and books on Hebrews, news about research in Hebrews, information about websites dedicated to Hebrews, and anything else pertinent to the study of Hebrews.
