[[Paul]]'s '''Epistle to the Romans''' (often referred to as simply "Romans") is the sixth book in the [[New Testament]], and the 53rd book of the [[Orthodox Church|Eastern Orthodox]] [[Bible]], the 52nd of the [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] Bible, and 45th of the [[Protestantism|Protestant]] Bible. See [[Biblical Canon]]. It is the first of what are commonly called the "Pauline Epistles" (books of the Bible, originally letters, written by [[Paul]]). This Epistle appears based for its discussion of [[faith]] on the [[Epistle to the Hebrews]], of which Paul may have had a copy.

This Epistle is considered perhaps the most important letter in all of [[Christianity]]. '''''Many Christians would pick this letter "if they could only have one book of the Bible on a deserted island'''''," observes ''The New Student Bible''. The purpose of this Epistle is to preach to [[Roman]] Christians. Much of its focus is on doctrine, and some scholars believe that Paul was writing because the Romans did not understand the [[faith]].
