	Authorship of the Pauline epistles - Biocrawler
		The Authorship of the Pauline epistles is frequently debated; the Pauline epistles comprise a large portion of the New Testament.
		However, the epistle does use many idiosyncrasies that are used in several of the epistles, which lends weight to Paul's authorship, for example, phrases such as en christo and en kurio are used in the same manner as elsewhere.
		Fourthly, strong evidence of the reliance on the authentic Pauline Letter to the Colossians, seems to indicate that this is a letter written after his death, intending to restate and develop some of his theology.

		He has absolutely proved that these Prologues belong together (those to the Pastoral Epistles are of a different character); that they are to be ascribed to the Marcionites; and from them came into the Church.
		Under these suitably varying expressions Pauline Christianity (assumed to be independent of the Old Testament) is always to be understood.
		We note by the way that “veritas” (“verus”) is a genuine Marcionite watchword, derived from the Epistle to the Galatians, the most important epistle for Marcion (Gal.

		We need not note here that these Epistles are not named after the addressee, as happens in the case of the Pauline Epistles, but after the inspired author.
		Quite a number of the New-Testament Epistles contain those touches of intimate familiarity which are supposed to be the essential characteristics of the letter.

	Pauline epistles - Definition, explanation
		The epistle to the Hebrews is something of a special case, being anonymous.
		The signed Pauline epistles may be classified into two sections: Paul's letters to new Christian churches of the first century (Romans through Second Thessalonians), and Paul's letters to individuals (First Timothy through Philemon).
		Paul's letters to individuals are sometimes called the Pastoral epistles as most of them are addressed to young preachers and are concerned with the shepherding of the church.

	Hermann Detering, The Dutch Radical Approach to the Pauline Epistles
		This excited Van Manen's interest in the first unquestionable witness of the Pauline Epistles, the arch-heretic Marcion, who was excommunicated in Rome in 144 C.E., accused by the Fathers of the Church of tampering not only with the Gospel of Luke, but also with the Pauline Epistles in the interest of his dualistic-gnostic theology.
		While in his investigations into the Marcionite Epistle to the Galatians he finally evaded the question of the authenticity of Galatians posed at the beginning, he insisted in his investigation into the Epistle to the Romans in 1891 that "the supposition that 'Paul' owes his coming into being to the Marcionites cannot be tolerated.
		Equally thinkable is that the clashes mirrored in the Pauline Epistles and which give them that so-called "occasional" and unintelligible character (like the overheard half of a telephone conversation) are nothing more than the reflex of those conflicts which Marcion and his pupils fought out in and with the Marcionite congregations.

	The Dutch Radical Approach to the Pauline Epistles - Hermann Detering
		In all his major investigations into the Pauline Epistles (Rom, 1 and 2 Cor), Van Manen stereotypically begins by inquiring after the nature of the work, the unity of the book, and the composition of the epistle, in the course of which he deals mainly with questions of a literary-critical character.
		The Epistle to the Galatians, where in the introduction it is explicitly said that Paul is the apostle called by God, "not of man, neither by man," is remodeled on the basis of the Catholic Acts of the Apostles.
		The Epistles together have for him in common, "that they all spring from one circle, that they were originally all of them useful to one spiritual attitude, which we may call Pauline, since it was associated with the name of Paul, just like the Johannine ones with that of John.

		The Pauline legend is allegorical of the Church theory of her origin.
		The monks put into the mouth of their wondrous "Origen" the saying, that the style of the Epistle to the Hebrews has not the peculiarity of the Apostle,, who confessed that he was "idiot in speech" (rude of speech) —that is, in phrase —while the Epistle to the Hebrews is of better Greek composition.

	The Pauline Epistles.
		Some take this to refer to Spain (and Gaul), but there is no proof; and that an inscription found in Spain recording that some "new superstition" was "got rid of" refers to Paul and his labors there, is not at all convincing.
		In these Epistles we have the perfect embodiment of the Spirit's teaching for the churches.
		All of which and similar utterances make abundantly clear the fact that the Divine teaching of the Holy Spirit, in fulfillment of the promise of the Lord in John 16:13, is not only overlooked or not understood by some, but is deliberately ignored and rejected by others who employ them.

	The Marcionite prologues to the Pauline epistles.
		These Latin prologues to the Pauline epistles are found in various Latin manuscripts, including codex Fuldensis, century VI, but their composition probably dates to very much earlier.
		One clue to a Marcionite origin is the mention of the Laodiceans in the Colossian prologue, since Marcion held that the Pauline epistle to the Ephesians was actually sent to the Laodiceans.
		We have it by the truth of the church that this epistle was sent to the Ephesians, not to the Laodiceans.

	How Might One Identify Pseudepigraphy in the Pauline Epistles
		First, it is common practice to suggest that the language and/or literary style of an epistle differs to a greater or lesser degree from the language and style of the undisputed Pauline epistles.
		Scholars often note when an epistle uses words that are not common (or present at all) in the vocabulary of the undisputed Paulines, or when an epistle infuses common Pauline words with meaning that is not found in the undisputed Paulines.
		The second major criterion commonly used to determine authenticity of authorship is comparison of theology in the letter under consideration with the theology found in the undisputed Paulines.
