Hebrews 1 - Introduction

Title. Πρὸς Ἑβραίους. This is the simple title of the Epistle in אABC (in subscr.) K. In L we have του αγιου και πανευφημου αποστ. παυλ. επιστ. προς εβρ. In M εγραφη απο ιταλιας δια τιμοθεου η προς εβρ. επιστ. εκτεθεισα ως εν πινακι. It need hardly be said that these titles have no particle of authority.
