It is clear from the context of the material that both 1 Peter and 2 Peter were written during the second century. Further evidence of the late date of 2 Peter is that it incorporates, as a block, almost all of the Epistle of Jude, clearly a second century composition.

There is no clear consensus on which book was written last, but 2 Peter is clearly later than 1 Peter and Jude, and was probably written by 130 CE, or a little later.

What is First Peter in the Bible?

AnswerThe book known as The First Epistle General of Peter, or either First Peter or 1 Peter, is an epistle or letter believed to have been written by an anonymous author and attributed to the Apostle Peter. It must have been written before 135 CE, since Polycarp refers to 1 Peter in his Letter to the Philippians. First Peter clearly had a different author than 2 Peter, which was written somewhat later. First Peter is considered by scholars to more closely reflect the theology of Paul, than that of the other 'Petrine' epistles, 2 Peter and Jude.


How many of Peter's letters are attributed to John?

-----------------------As far as we know, the apostle Peter did not write any letters (1 Peter and 2 Peter are believed to have been written in the second century, using Peter's name). While those attributed to John are unlikely to have really been written by the disciple of that name, there is no good reason to believe that they were written by Peter.
