Rest stops required

The book of Hebrews was probably written shortly before the destruction of the temple in Jerusalem, which occurred in 70 AD. The book's author is unknown, although theologians believe it could have been Barnabas or Apollos. It is clear the Jewish recipients of the letter knew the author, and the author was well informed about the needs of the early Christians. The lives of first-century Jews were dramatically changed when they chose to follow Christ. Many first-generation Christians were aging or dying by the time Hebrews was written. There was a movement in the Church, especially when Jerusalem was in peril, to return to their Jewish faith and support their families, friends, and nation. The letter of Hebrews was written to encourage the Jewish Christians to remain true to their faith and the gospel message. The book of Hebrews teaches that spiritual rest results from a right relationship with God through salvation in Christ and the leadership of his Holy Spirit.
