A:Excluding the Catholic Deuterocanonical books, the Book of Daniel, written approximately 167 BCE, is considered the last Old Testament book to be written.

The epistles of Paul are generally dated to the 50s of the first century CE, with Hebrews possibly a little earlier. The gap is just over two hundred years.

B:

No. It was over 400 years. The Intertestamental Period covers the span between the final prophet mentioned in the Old Testament (Malachi, about 450 B.C.) and the birth of Christ (about 4 B.C.).

When was the fist bible written?

The Bible was written over a period of about 5,000 years. The Old Testament, before Christ, was written by several prophets between approximately 3,000 BC- 1,000 BC. The New Testament, after Christ's birth, was written in the hundred years or so after Christ's death, mostly by His disciples. There isn't really a definite date, it's spread out :)

Over a period of how many years was the New Testament written?

We can not be certain exactly how long the New Testament took to write. Paul's earliest epistles are commonly dated to perhaps the late 40s. while Hebrews could be even earlier. Some of the other epistles could contain material written well before 30 CE. Probably the last book in the New Testament to be completed is Second Peter, which some scholars date to between 120 and 150 CE. Thus, the New Testament spans a period of around one hundred years.

Were there 400 years between writing the Old Testament and the New Testament?

Opinion The 400 years period is the approximate period of silence between the time of Malachi (circa 430 BCE) and the New Testament period. In Malachi 3:1, it is written that a messenger will prepare the way, which according to Christian tradition is John the Baptist as described in the New Testament. The time period between Malachi and John the Baptist is roughly 400 years.


What are the 400 years between the Old Testament and the New Testament called?

It is disputable whether the period was really as much as 400 years, since the Book of Daniel is believed to have been written during the second century BCE. However, this period is called the intertestamental period.Several of the deuterocanonical books, accepted as scripture by the Roman Catholic and Orthodox Churches, were also written during this period.
