There is no cosmological treatise in the Bible such as the Aristotelian Περὶ οὐρανοῦ or the Plato... more There is no cosmological treatise in the Bible such as the Aristotelian Περὶ οὐρανοῦ or the Platonic Τίμαιος. Nevertheless, the issue of cosmology is not of a total irrelevance to the reader of the biblical texts. In fact, the text is full of rich images impinged on the semantic field of creation and cosmology.
The epistle to the Hebrews does not escape the scheme. A glance at the critical issues of the book and its background show how relevant the issue of the cosmology of Hebrews is (e.g. 1.26; 8.5; 9.23; 11.3 etc). Thus the question of this paper is what is the cosmology of the epistle to the Hebrews? What in term of substance that is ‘what is the structure of the universe?’ but also what in term of origin, ‘to which background does it belong?’
