Hidden In Him

Well, all his other epistles were addressed to either a particular church or a particular individual. But in this case he was writing to Hebrew believers throughout the ancient world, knowing the letter would be circulated. These circumstances would not have necessitated addressing the letter to any one church or individual in particular.
LoL. Just realized I answered a different question than what you asked.
As for why he didn't put his name to it, it may have been an issue regarding authority. As an apostle to the Gentiles, he may have felt he was not in quite the same position to address the Hebrew church with authority as their apostle, hence the lack of an authoritative greeting where he defined himself as such, as Paul did in all his other letters.
My apologies for misreading your question. I'm supposed to be taking a break from the forums. I'm not all here lately, LoL.
