In 1908, H. B. Swete determined that "in Hebrews there is no theology of the spirit." Nearly a century later, Barnabas Lindars concluded that "the Spirit plays no part in the argument of the letter [to the Hebrews]." This study, in contrast, demonstrates that the pneumatology of...

520 |a In 1908, H. B. Swete determined that "in Hebrews there is no theology of the spirit." Nearly a century later, Barnabas Lindars concluded that "the Spirit plays no part in the argument of the letter [to the Hebrews]." This study, in contrast, demonstrates that the pneumatology of Hebrews is coherent, integral to the letter's argument, rooted in Israelite literature, and closely related to other NT conceptions of the Spirit, though with a creative bent. Three references to the Holy Spirit (Heb 3:7-8; 9:8; 10:15) are of a piece in their portrayal of the Spirit as the active interpreter of Scripture for the community of the letter. In the other four references (Heb 2:4; 6:4; 9:14; 10:29), ancient phrases are interpreted afresh and contemporary concerns are embedded in ancient traditions. In all seven references, the Spirit plays an essential role in the salvation to which the author so urgently calls the letter's recipients. There exists, therefore, an indispensable pneumatology in Hebrews that must be taken into careful consideration in all future studies of early Jewish and Christian pneumatology.
