Priscilla’s Letter: Finding the Author of the Epistle to the Hebrews is a well written, thought-provoking exploration of the idea that the canonical book of Hebrews could have been written by Priscilla (of Priscilla / Prisca and Aquila).
While we cannot be absolutely certain of Hebrews’ authorship from just the information we have available today, Ruth does a fantastic job laying out a case for the possibility that Priscilla was the author. She demonstrates the ways the unnamed author of the book uses feminine language and identifies with women throughout the book of Hebrews, examines the other potential authors of the book (and shows why they cannot be candidates for authorship), then presents all of the factors that could point to Priscilla as the author using well-cited, well-researched historical and contextual information.
Having now read the book, I agree that there is good evidence that the usual suspects for authorship are unlikely and that it is entirely plausible that the writer was a woman. Ruth makes a compelling case for Priscilla’s authorship and the book is a fascinating read. I definitely recommend it.… (altro)
