Hebrews 13 chapters

There's research to undergo the identity of the author of Hebrews. Scholars say, that Hebrews was written by Paul, others say, Luke wrote Hebrews. But according to my research both Luke and Paul started their letters with a greeting. Acts 1:1; Titus 1:1; and Philemon 1:1 and Paul's other letters. However, the ending of the letter to the Hebrews proves it's Paul. Hebrews 13:22-25.

There are Seven Apostolic Letters:

James 5 chapters
I Peter 5 chapters
II Peter 3 chapters
I John 5 chapters
II John 1 chapter
III John 1 chapter
Jude 1 chapter
