None.

Most of The Bible was written about 400 years after Jesus' death.

It's ALL fiction

Answer:It cannot be "proved" one way or the other, but reputable Bible scholars agree that there are two possibilities: the epistles of James and Jude might have been written by two of Jesus' earthly half-brothers.

Yes James was the brother of Jesus, please note the bible refers to James and Jude as brothers and not as half brothers.

The above is not self-contradictory as the term "brother" as used in the Bible refers to anyone living as a male sibling in the same household, including half-brothers and adopted brothers. Jesus had both half-brothers and adopted brothers (also 2nd cousins). Joseph was a widower with children, and his nephew also died with children whom Joseph adopted.

A:The books known as the Epistles of James and Jude are attributed to two of the brothers of Jesus. It is possible that James was written early enough to have been written by the brother James, if somewhat unlikely. The Book of Jude was clearly written in the second century by an author who knew none of Jesus' contemporaries. Jude 3 refers to the faith that was "once delivered unto the saints" - long ago. Therefore Jude could not really have written this one.

In summary, it is possible, although unlikely, that James wrote a book in the New Testament. Jude certainly did not.

Another answer:

The Epistle of James, was most likely written by the Lord's brother, James, and was probably the earliest written book of the New Testament(44-49 A.D.).

James had seen the risen Christ (I Cor. 15:7). He was an associate of the apostles, and the leader of the Jerusalem Church. According to Josephus, James was martyred in A.D. 62.

The Epistle of Jude was written 68-70 A.D. before the destruction of Jerusalem. Jude, (verse 1.) claims to be the brother of James. Clement of Rome (ca. A.D. 96) alluded to the authenticity of Jude as did Clement of Alexandria (ca. A. D.200).

Who writer wrote the most number of books of the new testament?

The Apostle Paul wrote 2/3 of the New Testament. -------------------------------------------------------------- Actually, Paul wrote more books than anyone, taking up 2/3 of the books, but as far as actual writing, literature, words, sentences, etc. Luke, who only wrote two books (Luke and Acts) "wrote" more than than Paul.
