Between five and seven epistles were actually written by Paul: 1 Thessalonians, Galatians, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians, Philippians, Philemon and Romans. A.Q. Morton goes further, having carried out a computer analysis of the epistles attributed to Paul and found that only Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians and Philemon contain exactly the same writing style as Galatians, leaving some room for doubt regarding 1 Thessalonians and Philippians.

Also traditionally attributed to Paul are 2 Thessalonians, Ephesians, Colossians, 1and 2 Timothy, and Titus, which are sometimes referred to as pseudo-Pauline epistles and are believed to have been entirely unknown to St Paul.

Finally, Hebrews was attributed to Paul late in the second century, but this is clearly not the case.
