Jesus and the Early Church
The Hebrews
S1 E1:
Although the author of the letter to the Hebrews is not certain, it was sent to Jewish Christians who were suffering for their faith. Persecutions in Jerusalem led them to flee to Rome, but the persecutions continued there. With Nero blaming them for the fire that destroyed Rome, Christians worshipped in secret in the Roman catacombs. The letter continues to encourage believers.
