We read in Hebrews 12:22-24, “But you have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem
8.
We have been brought past death, where the fear of death is the ultimate temptation (see Hebrews 2:15)
9.
Passing out from that death and into life, we as a community enter into the rest (Hebrews 4:10-11)
10.
We are brought to a place of eternal priesthood – a people that offer up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save (Hebrews 5:7)
11.
It is through suffering in this priesthood that we learn obedience, and we ourselves are perfected unto the salvation of Israel – the author of that salvation being Christ, and being reiterated through His Body (Hebrews 5:8-9)
12.
It is from that priesthood that we are brought into a place where we are kings of righteousness, and kings of shalom (peace), without father and mother, without decent, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like unto the Son of God (Hebrews 7:2-3)

20.
Xonia fell in beside him while Helez joined the rest of the Hebrews
21.
He felt the eyes of the Hebrews and Ashpenaz on him, waiting for his reply
22.
“To we Hebrews, bathing is a very private affair – the menfolk bathe separately from the womenfolk
23.
Zarko began the training of the Hebrews with a heavy heart now that Xonia was gone
24.
The frown on his face got deeper and he wondered what could have happened to her, but he had to attend to the Hebrews and there was no time now to be overly worried about her whereabouts
25.
They had even stopped their weekly training in the Law of Moses and the religion of the Hebrews

He wasn’t afraid at all and it must’ve shown in his facial expressions, because Arioch averted his eyes first, hoping that these Hebrews did indeed have a solution

40.
The three Hebrews followed Zarko through the crowd to the image where the king was waiting
41.
The three Hebrews climbed out of the furnace and bowed before the king

The previous day Ashpenaz had confirmed that a large contingent of Hebrews from Judah had been captured and that their city, Jerusalem, and its temple had been razed to the ground
47.

Could this be another example of the shortcomings of oral history, a story told and retold countless times until only a parabolic shell is left of what really happened in the desert of the Exodus? If I’m correct in my understanding that the Hebrews of the Exodus who fled Egypt of necessity reverted to an oral history tradition, as well as pastoral ways, then this story after a myriad of repetitions would have lost much of the context out of which it arose
62.
