→Pauline Epistles: more likely, but not certain
*[[Epistle to the Hebrews]]
*[[Epistle to the Hebrews]]
Bible scholarship over the last two centuries has concluded that seven of these letters were almost certainly written by Paul: Romans, 1 and 2 Corinthians, Galatians, Philippians, Philemon and 1 Thessalonians. It is less clear whether Paul, or his disciples, wrote these letters bearing his name: Ephesians, 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus. Paul's role as author of Colossians and 2 Thessalonians is uncertain.

There is speculation that Paul may have written the ''Epistle to the Hebrews'', but authorship could have easily been by someone else, such as [[Barnabas]], [[Silas]], [[Stephen]], [[Apollos]], [[Priscilla]] or any other early Christian. The controversy, however, does not affect the genuineness of the epistle. (Unger, pg. 748)
