Thirteen 'epistles' or letters have been attributed to Paul. Hebrews was also at one stage attributed to him, but that is clearly not the case. It was never attributed to him until late in the second century.

At least seven Pauline epistles are widely considered to be genuine, and of these five have been shown by computer analysis to contain exactly the same writing or dictation style: Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians, Philemon and Galatians.

The two that may, with some confidence, have been written by Paul, but do not match the style of Galatians are Philippians and 1 Thessalonians.

In 1 Corinthians 9:5, Paul makes it clear that he was married, as were Peter and most of the other apostles and brothers of Jesus.

Thereafter, Paul was gradually and inexorably moved into the status of a celibate."

What is the last name of Apostle Paul?

In the Middle East, the people did not have last names per say at the time. They were called 'Name' bar 'Father's name'. Paul's/Saul's father's name is not known, but we do know that his father was Pharisee. So Paul would have been known as Saul bar (father's name) or Paul bar (father's name)


What is the 6th book of the New Testament?

Modern researchers say that the Book of Revelation was probably written at the end of the first century, but that several New Testament books were written later than this. The last book to be written in the New Testament is believed to have been 2 Peter. Although written in Peter's name, it is quite obviously pseudepigraphical and uses a good deal of material from the Epistle of Jude, which actually self-identifies as a second-century work.
