Some of you know that I've been in the process of writing The Rhetoric of Paul: Letters, Persuasion, Community, which will be about all of the letters of the corpus paulinum except Hebrews. I find Hebrews absolutely fascinating. I find parts of its Greek style absolutely stunning. I definitely think the writer of Hebrews knew about rhetoric although I admit the dispositio (arrangement) of Hebrews eludes me. I do think that the end of Hebrews 12 certainly seems to be a marvelous peroratio.
I hope to show in The Rhetoric of Paul how the rhetoric OF Paul in the authentic letters gives way to the rhetoric ABOUT Paul in the pseudopauline letters (yes, that's the terminology I'm using). What I'd like to ask in this thread is whether anybody finds anything in Hebrews Pauline. I haven't found any particular connections between Hebrews and Pauline Christianity but would like to hear if others do.
