Jewish Christians, some of whom were apparently wavering in their commitment to Jesus, are reminded that Christ is the mediator of a better convenant, which was established upon better promises.



A Once for all sacrifice on the cross that provides eternal redemption for us.

Written to Jewish Christians hence the name "Hebrews", this long letter emphasizes the superiority of Christianity to Old Testament Judaism; Jesus is so much better than angels, Moses, and the previous animal sacrifices.
