It is interesting to look especially at Colossians, where the unique subject
matter provides some shared vocabulary with Hebrews. E.g., SKIA/SKIAN TWN
MELLONTWN, Col. 2:17; Heb. 10:1. The subject matter, then, probably accounts
for the vocabulary variation argument. On style and syntax, if Hebrews does
find its origins in a "word of exhortation," wouldn't oral differ from
written patterns?
Yours sincerely,
Rev. Matthew Winzer
