The website says the book has not yet been released. Hopefully, that is a typo on the part of the publisher (a very big typo, at that!). If it is a typo, I would hope that it is corrected before the book is published. BTW, Paul is no longer considered to be the author of Hebrews, anyway (one book, not two nonetheless); the author of Hebrews is unknown.
 
That’s weird. Even the cover of the book says it.

🙂 Correction: SOME (mostly modern) Bible scholars doubt the Pauline authorship of Hebrews. It is by no means settled or definitive, latest theories not always being synonymous with finality. I prefer the traditional attribution.
 
That does seem unusual, although a quick Google search turns up frequent pluralization of the Biblical book. The Hahn/Mitch book title listed on the cover is the only place I’ve seen it formally separated as First and Second Letters, and it appears that Hahn and Mitch have taken the minority stance shared by Fidelis in asserting that Paul is properly the author.

I notice that Hahn doesn’t seem to have a weekly radio show anymore to call in and question him on this topic, but if you’re really curious it’s possible he discusses his views on the issue in his Book of Hebrews tape series - only $34.
