WRITER: Paul (?)
In spite of the fact that the Pauline authorship cannot be confirmed in a dogmatic fashion, there is abundant evidence that Paul was the author. Both internal and external evidence support the authorship of Paul. The writer had been in bonds (Heb. 10:34); he wrote from Italy (Heb. 13:24); his companion was Timothy (Heb. 13:23). The writing is Pauline and, in my opinion, Peter identifies Paul as the writer (2 Peter 3:15-16; cf. 1 Peter 1:1) -Dr. J. Vernon McGee
