  2. What helpful facts about the writing of the New Testament documents have you learned from this lesson?
    1. Was it something like this?:  "Paul died anywhere from his 62 to 68. A.D. Therefore, his epistles were written before that date. The book of Acts is a history of the Christian Church. The book of Acts does not record the death of Peter nor Paul and it does not mention the destruction of Jerusalem and 70 A.D. Therefore, the book of Acts is logically written before those dates.  Luke, who wrote Acts, also wrote the gospel of Luke before the book of Acts. Therefore, at least that gospel was written quite early. As far as the Pauline epistles and the work of Peter and James (whose death also was not recorded in Acts), supports the fact that the New Testament documents were written well before the close of the first Century and most probably before 60 or 70 A.D.
