Written to the Hebrews from Italy, by Timothy.

This Postscript cannot be imagined to be added by the Apostle that penned this Epistle: for it is contrary to sundry passages therein; Such as these.

THis Postscript cannot be imagined to be added by the Apostle that penned this Epistle: for it is contrary to sundry passages therein; Such as these.

:22342p. 157

1. It is promised in this Epistle, that Timothy should come to them, namely after the Epistle was sent, v. 23. How then could it be sent by Timothy? 2. Timothy was not with the Apostle when he sent this Epistle: For, he looked that he should come shortly to him. This Epistle then was not sent by him. 3. The Apostle promised to come himself with Timothy: How can we then think that he would send him before him with this Epistle? 4. It is not probable that the Apostle would date his Epistle from a large Region, as Italy was: but rather from some Church, or Town, or City therein.

We may from these premises infer, That this Postscript is no part of Canonical Scripture.
