Hebrews
In the Bible, the term "Hebrews" primarily refers to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, particularly in the context of their identity as a distinct people chosen by God. The word "Hebrew" (עִבְרִי, ivri) is believed to derive from the root "to cross over," which may refer to Abraham's crossing over the Euphrates River as he migrated to Canaan (Genesis 12:1). This term is used in various contexts throughout the Old and New Testaments, often emphasizing the cultural and religious identity of the Israelites in contrast to surrounding nations.In the New Testament, "Hebrews" also refers to the audience of the Epistle to the Hebrews, which addresses Jewish Christians. This book discusses themes such as faith, the superiority of Christ, and the fulfillment of the Old Testament law through Jesus, suggesting that the original recipients were likely struggling with maintaining their Jewish identity while embracing the new covenant. The term encapsulates a rich heritage and a covenant relationship with God, making it significant both historically and theologically in the biblical narrative (Hebrews 11:1-40 highlights the faith of various figures in this lineage).
