1 Timothy

Date Written - A.D. 62-64
It would seem that Paul wrote first Timothy following the events recorded in Acts 28. The book of Acts does not give the account of Paul's death. There is strong early church tradition which seems to support a fourth missionary journey and second imprisonment in Rome at which time Paul died at the hands of Nero. Paul gave confident statements in both Philippians and Philemon that he would soon be released from house arrest. (Philippians 1:25-26; Philemon 22)

Paul would have been released from his first imprisonment around A.D. 62 and Nero died in A.D. 68 so the letters of first and second Timothy and Titus would have been written during this period. General agreement is that he wrote his letters between A.D. 62-68.
