초록

The literary structure of the Book of Hebrews has been a topic of debate for many years, with the narrative structure gaining traction in recent years. Through the analysis of previous structural schemes and the identification of exodus narrative structural elements in Hebrews, this study aims to shed light on the Exodus story in Hebrews and deepen our understanding of the author’s theological message. These previous structural schemes of Hebrews are thematic structure, rhetorical structure, chiastic literary structure, and text-linguistic literary structure. While these approaches have merits, the narrative approach provides a broader framework to identify exodus motifs and incorporate them into the story. The Exodus story in Hebrews structures three main parts: the beginning, which is the revelation of God’s Son (Heb 1:1-4:16); the middle, which is the redemption of God’s people by the high priestly ministry of God’s Son (Heb 5:1-10:39); and the end of the story, the reward of God’s promised rest to the faithful (Heb 11:1-13:25). The Exodus story provides the context for the climax of God’s story of salvation through His Son, Jesus Christ. The Exodus narrative of Hebrews shows the necessity of standing firm in their confession and appeals to his readers to be submissive to God’s voice by His Son. These acts are intrinsically linked to their final state and place of blessedness in the unshakable kingdom. Overall, the paper demonstrates the author of Hebrews skillfully crafted the exodus motifs to present Christ’s events as the decisive turning point in the pilgrimage of God’s people. The use of the Exodus story in Hebrews provides a clearer picture of God’s redemptive work and underscores the significance of Christ’s high priestly ministry.

Abstract

The literary structure of the Book of Hebrews has been a topic of debate for many years, with the narrative structure gaining traction in recent years. Through the analysis of previous structural schemes and the identification of exodus narrative structural elements in Hebrews, this study aims to shed light on the Exodus story in Hebrews and deepen our understanding of the author’s theological message. These previous structural schemes of Hebrews are thematic structure, rhetorical structure, chiastic literary structure, and text-linguistic literary structure. While these approaches have merits, the narrative approach provides a broader framework to identify exodus motifs and incorporate them into the story. The Exodus story in Hebrews structures three main parts: the beginning, which is the revelation of God’s Son (Heb 1:1-4:16); the middle, which is the redemption of God’s people by the high priestly ministry of God’s Son (Heb 5:1-10:39); and the end of the story, the reward of God’s promised rest to the faithful (Heb 11:1-13:25). The Exodus story provides the context for the climax of God’s story of salvation through His Son, Jesus Christ. The Exodus narrative of Hebrews shows the necessity of standing firm in their confession and appeals to his readers to be submissive to God’s voice by His Son. These acts are intrinsically linked to their final state and place of blessedness in the unshakable kingdom. Overall, the paper demonstrates the author of Hebrews skillfully crafted the exodus motifs to present Christ’s events as the decisive turning point in the pilgrimage of God’s people. The use of the Exodus story in Hebrews provides a clearer picture of God’s redemptive work and underscores the significance of Christ’s high priestly ministry.
