1 and 2 Corinthians were written to the church at Corinth.
For starters, they were both written by the Apostle Paul.

AnswerThe Second Epistle to Timothy is traditionally believed to have been written by Paul from Rome. However, it is reported that scholars are almost unanimous in believing that this is one of the 'pseudo-Pauline' epistles written in Paul's name long after his death.If the epistle was only written to appear to have been written by Paul himself, we can not be certain where the real author wrote 2 Timothy from.
one was written to the Romans the other to the corinthians. read the letters in their original context to find what they mean to us today
AnswerCorinth is a city in Greece. In the New Testament, there are two letters, or epistles, from Paul to the Corinthians: known as 1 Corinthians and 2 Corinthians.
A:Yes. A computer analysis shows that 1 Corinthians has the same writng style as Galatians, which is generally used as the benchmark for genuine Pauline epistles. The consensus of scholars is that Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians, Philemon, Galatians, Philippians and 1 Thessalonians were all written by Paul.
1 Corinthians was written about a.d. 55 or 56. Paul says he is writing from Ephesus (1Cor 16:8-9, cf. v. 1Cor 16:19). Presumably chapter 14 was written at the same time.
II Corinthians, like all of the books of the New Testament, was written in classical Greek.
St. Paul wrote two letters to the church of Corinth, now known as 1 Corinthians and 2 Corinthians.
Answerwe can not be certain whether there were additinal, unpublished letters written by Paul, but 2 Corinthians does seem to refer to at least one additional letter to the Corinthians. 2 Corinthians 2:4 talks of a 'sorrowful letter' that Paul had previously written, but which could not have been 1 Corinthians. A quite reasonable suggestion is that someone subsequently added the 'sorrowful letter' as the last four chapters of 2 Corinthians, in which case, it is not really unpublished.Some scholars think 2 Corinthians is actually composed of fragments of several epistles, which have been assembled to provide a fairly consistent single 'letter'.
