Abstract
RODRIGUES, Adriani Milli. Marriage and the theology of Hebrews. A theological reading of Heb 12:28-13:6 with a focus on marriage. Franciscanum [online]. 2018, vol.60, n.170, pp.125-151. Epub Dec 22, 2020. ISSN 0120-1468. https://doi.org/10.21500/01201468.3903.
Taking into account the debate about the continuity or discontinuity in Heb 1-12 and Heb 13, with the implication of whether the hortatory material in chapter 13 is consistent with chapters 1-12 or it is a list of miscellaneous exhortations instead, this article seeks to discern connections between the concept of marriage in 13:4 with the ideas stated in 12:28-13:6. This endeavor is informed by a reading of 12:28-13:6 made in three steps. First, 12:28-29 is read as a transition for the hortatory material in chapter 13. Second, 13:1-6 is traced as a conceptual structure for the understanding of marriage in 13:4. Third, the article identifies connections of the exhortation about marriage in 13:4 with ideas developed in 12:28-29 and 13:1-6.
