When were Christian scriptures first written?
In this context, Christian scriptures means the New Testament books, rather than the books of the Old Testament. Most biblical scholars accept that the Gospel According to St Mark was the first written of the four canonical Gospels, and that it was written around 70 CE. Some other Christian scriptures were probably written prior to the gospels, most notably Paul's epistles. Paul is believed to have written the epistles in the 50s CE, but they may have been somewhat earlier. The Epistle to the Hebrews was probably also written well before 70 CE. The earliest layers of some other New Testament books may have been written long before the time of Paul's epistles.
What year was each of the four Gospels written?
We can not say exactly which year each of the New Testament gospels was written, but we can come close. Scholars say that Mark's Gospel was written approxmately 70 CE. Matthew's Gospel is believed to have been written during the 80s CE, although Raymond E Brown (''An Introduction to the New Testament'') cautions to allow a few years either side of that decade. Luke's gospel was written in the 90s of the first century, or early in the second century. John's Gospel was written early in the second century.
