Letter of Paul to Timothy, 2
Book Written: Baker gives the date of 66 A.D., but HC holds to the later 90 A.D. to 110 A.D as was the case for 1 Timothy.
Time Period/Setting: This letter is thought to have been written by Paul from a Roman prison. Both Baker and HC describe this letter as a kind of last will and testament from a man about to die.
Title: As with 1 Timothy, HC casts doubt on Paul as the author.
Baker in particular finds these letters to be filled with thoughtful advice delivered in a warm and loving way to a pastor faced with the demands of leading a congregation.
