The apostle Paul was educated as a Pharisee by Gamaliel and became a very zealous religionist and persecutor of false teachers. But after he saw the light while on the road to Damascus, he gave his life to Christ and followed Him. The book of Hebrews was written to explain to ethnic and religious Jews that mere religion would not give them eternal life, but all that was written in their scripture pointed to the Messiah. An authentic salvific relationship with Jesus, their promised Messiah, was not a way, a good way, or even the best way to receive eternal life. Rather, Jesus is the only way to attain eternal life.
