Epístola aos Hebreus: bases textuais para um neomonoteísmo cristão.

Abstract

The present research examines the various statements about the figure originally introduced as the 'Son' in the book of the Bible known as the Epistle to the Hebrews. The Son is identified as being Jesus Christ, described by the author of the epistle with attributes previously designated only to God, the Father, in a concomitant non-parallel perspective. The qualifications of the Son are in the intersection with the Father's attributes, and constitute the basis for the divine conception of the Son. Given the socio-religious implications, this process of deification is best unders - tood in the Jewish period of national crisis that follows the events of 70 AC, where intra-Jewish conflicts arose. And compared to the monotheistic concept according to Old Testament tradition, the deification of Jesus based on the Epistle to the Hebrews presents theological elements that suggest new monotheistic concepts, referred to in the research as neomonotheism.
