Hello;
Whereas many of the New Testament's letters were addressed to Gentiles, this one
in particular is addressed to Jews; especially those who know their way around the
Old Testament. Folks who've spent little or no time at all getting to know the Old
Testament usually always experience a bit of difficulty with his letter.
The letter is premised upon the assumption that Messiah has visited his countrymen
once already. The assumption is plausible because according to Daniel 9:25-26,
Messiah should've been here and gone before foreigners destroyed the second
Temple.
The letter also goes on the assumption that Jesus of Nazareth-- a.k.a. Y'shua -
was, and is, the Messiah. That's plausible too seeing as how Jesus' life and times
coincided with Daniel's time element. Also that he was a sin offering per Isa 53:6,
his death was due to a miscarriage of justice per Isa 53:8, and he was buried in a
rich man's grave per Isa 53:9.
