AnswerTradition holds that the Epistle to Titus was written from Macedonia. However, there is a strong consensus among biblical scholars that Titus is a pseudo-Pauline epistle written during the second century to address concerns that arose during the first half of the second century. Burton L. Mack (Who Wrote the New Testament) says their attribution to Paul is clearly fictional, for the language, style and thought are thoroughly un-Pauline. Moreover, the 'personal' references to particular occasions in the lives of Titus and Paul do not fit with reconstructions of that history taken from the authentic letters of Paul.

Paul had been dead foralmost a hundred years by the time the Book of Titus was written.

A:Several of the epistles attributed to Paul were written in his name by anonymous authors, after his death. Interestingly, 2 Thessalonians 2:2 implicitly tells the reader that forged Pauline letters had been circulating. Whether or not this was a genuine Pauline epistle, this statement certainly warns us that not all Paul's epistles were authentic.

The broad consensus of scholars is that the First Epistle to the Thessalonians was actually written by Paul, although there are dissenters to this opinion. If this is a genuine Pauline letter, at least some material must have been added later, but we do not know who those authors or editors were. For example, material must have been added at 1 Thess 2:14-16, directing Paul's apocalyptic preachments against those who opposed the Christian mission, since nothing elsewhere in all of Paul's letters comes close to such a pronouncement. Paul mentions Silvanus and Timothy as co-senders.

Regardless of 2 Thess 2:2, the Second Epistle to the Thessalonians is considered by New Testament scholars to have been one of the epistles written anonymously after Paul's death. Almost one-third of it is a verbatim copy from the first letter, the signature is suspicious, and the eschatology reflects a development of Christian apocalyptic thinking of the kind that took place only after the Roman-Jewish War around the turn of the first century. We do not know who wrote this epistle.
