Hebrews was written to a group of first century Christians who were in danger of giving up. As Christianity began to spread, so did persecution. The test was especially difficult for the Messianic Jews who, in addition to everything else, had to deal with cultural ostracization. While some endured this adversity and others even accepted it with joy, some began to waver in their faith and were tempted to forsake Christ and return to their former religion and practices.
