The book has earned the reputation of being a masterpiece . It has also been described as an intricate New Testament book . Scholars believe it was written for Jewish Christians who lived in Jerusalem . Its purpose was to exhort Christians to persevere in the face of persecution . At this time, certain believers were considering turning back to Judaism (the Jewish system of law) to escape being persecuted for accepting Christ as their saviour, now following this system of grace (saved by Jesus' sacrifice on the cross). The theme of the epistle is the doctrine of the person of Christ and his role as mediator between God and humanity . </P>
