Do we have any reasons why we would think that a Hebrew Apostle would write and send out a Greek language letter to a Hebrew speaking Church? Do we believe that the Hebrew Church spoke Greek as their primary language?
Clement of Alexandria in about 190 A.D. explains the contrast in language and style, from that of the Apostle Paul's other letters, by saying that the Epistle to the Hebrews was indeed written originally in the Hebrew's language, but was then translated by Luke into Greek.
