About this episode
There is significant disagreement amongst scholars as to whether the Apostle Paul really wrote 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy, or Titus, collectively known as the Pastoral Epistles. In this episode we will discuss the possibility of pseudonymity and also the possibility that Paul is the author. We also look into some of the content of the books. We also look at Titus and Timothy, the men who received these instructional letter. Finally, we look at why 2 Timothy is so different in tone from any other Pauline epistle, since this letter seems to have been written shortly before his inevitable execution.
