Solomon, son of King David and Bathsheba, King of Israel wrote most of the book of Proverbs. Proverbs 30 is attributed to Agur, and Proverbs 31 to King Lemuel’s mother.
When did the events of the Book of Proverbs happen?
Most of this book is said to have been written during the 10th century BC and was completed between 729-696 BC.
What is the setting of the Book of Proverbs?
It was written mostly during Solomon’s middle-aged years while he was at the height of his power as King of Israel, leaving behind a book of practical wisdom for godly living.
Teaches that wisdom is available to all, but all must choose the path of wisdom for themselves.
Explains that the wise and godly are rewarded for their righteousness. Alternatively, the foolish reap the consequences of their folly.
Provides practical guidelines for godly living and helps Christians to understand the difference between wisdom and foolishness, good and evil, truth and falsehood, and so much more.
Solomon was 20 years old when he ascended to the throne of Israel and he reigned for 40 years, from 971-931 BC. He wrote approximately 3,000 proverbs and 1,005 songs. Proverbs is written primarily by Solomon, who is esteemed as the wisest person of all time (1 Kings 4:29-32). His strengths were not in battle but in matters of the mind such as planning, organization, meditation, and negotiation.
Solomon wrote more of the Old Testament than any other man except Moses. He wrote Song of Solomon in his youth while writing Proverbs in his more mature years at the height of his power. Solomon wrote Ecclesiastes in his later years as a reflection of his life and experiences. Agur authored Proverbs 30 while Proverbs 31 was from King Lemuel’s mother, neither of whom is much known.
What is a Proverb?
A proverb is a brief saying as a statement of comparison. The book of Proverbs is a collection of statements about everyday life and practical guidelines for successful living as a godly person. They often speak of a “path” or “way, indicating conduct and lifestyles as a means to wise and godly living.
The primary contrasts throughout Proverbs are the differences between wisdom and foolishness, good and evil, life versus death, truth versus falsehood. Throughout the Book of Proverbs, we can all learn the Biblical wisdom of having the right relationship to God and living godly, prudent lives for Him.

Who wrote the Book of Ephesians and who did they write it for?
The book of Ephesians is a letter written by the Apostle Paul to the churches in Ephesus.
When did the events in the Book of Ephesians happen?
This letter was written around 61 AD during Paul's house arrest in Rome.
What is the setting of the Book of Ephesians?
Ephesus was one of the major cities within the Roman province of Asia. It was located at the intersection of many trade routes as well as the most direct route to the eastern Roman provinces, by both land and sea. Because of this, it was the most famous and populous city in Asia at the time. On one of Paul’s visits to Ephesus prior to this letter, his preaching led to so many converts that the silver trade, which supported the worship of Diana (Artemis), suffered. This caused riots that led Paul to flee to Macedonia.
Believer’s past, present, and future (Ephesians 2-3)
Responsibilities of the body of Christ (Ephesians 4-6)
Believer’s call to responsibility and purity (Ephesians 4)
Believer’s call to Spirit-filled living and spiritual warfare (Ephesians 5-6)
How does the Book of Ephesians apply to my life?
Paul wrote this letter to the many churches that had been planted along the routes of his missionary journeys to encourage them in faith and explain their position and responsibilities as the body of Christ.
This letter from Paul is filled with valuable foundational truths that help believers understand our total position in our Savior. It also includes many practical life applications for these truths and our faith. Paul, being guided by the Holy Spirit, stresses the importance and goal of unity within the body of Christ, and also teaches vital tools at our disposal for combatting the very real spiritual warfare we're all facing. The main theme of Ephesians is that the Body of Christ makes up the Glorious Church, in which all believers are called to live united, and to live as though we are saved.

Summary
Philemon is a tiny little letter from Paul to Philemon. Philemon was a slave owner who had recently converted to Christianity. He held church in his home in Colossae, although it is unclear if he housed the entire church or was a single location for the church in Colossae. Philemon had a slave that had run away and this is Paul’s letter to Philemon urging him to forgive his slave.
This is a valuable letter with themes that are incredibly relevant even today. Throughout this letter, we see a wonderful example of what Christ did for us in paying for our sins. We can be encouraged by the transforming love of Jesus that leads us in His ways to become more like Him and closer to God. There are also valuable lessons about Christian charity that all should take to heart.

If written to South Galatia on Paul’s first missionary journey it was written around 48-50 AD. If it was written to North Galatia in the second missionary journey it was written around 55-57 AD.
What is the setting for the book of Galatians?
It is clear that there were a lot of cultural and ethnic influences causing confusion and leading new believers into false teaching throughout the churches in Galatia.

Justification is by faith in Jesus rather than keeping the Law.
Declares Christian freedom from the Law and for service to God.
Provides guidelines for Christian living.
Explains the fruit of the Spirit, which are the attributes of God that Christians display as evidence of true faith in Christ as a result of walking in the Spirit.
Encourages Christians to fellowship, share burdens, walk in Christ together, and to not give up hope.
Summary

There had been confusing teachings by Judiazers to new Christian converts about their legalistic teachings. As a result of this, Paul writes to the Galatians to encourage them in the truth of the gospel, the differences between the Law and the Gospel, justification by faith, explanation of faith and works, Christian liberty, walking in the Spirit, and so much more.
This letter is short yet packed with crucial guidance and wisdom for every follower of Jesus to learn and apply to their lives.
How does the Book of 2 Corinthians apply to my life?
After writing the letter of 1 Corinthians, a strong appeal for the Corinthians to correct their immoral conduct, the Corinthians were swayed by false apostles to reject Paul, who later wrote to rebuke them. This letter of 2 Corinthians is in response to their repentance after having rejected him.
Reaffirms Paul’s authority as an apostle of Jesus Christ.
Teaches correct intentions and motives for serving Jesus Christ.
Teaches that obedience to Christ includes respecting and submitting to His messengers;
Instructs how to discern between true and false messengers of the Lord.
2 Corinthians is an incredibly autobiographical, personal, and harsh letter from the Apostle Paul to the Corinthian church. He wrote this letter as he was traveling in Macedonia revisiting the churches he had established. After Paul wrote the letter of 1 Corinthians to the Corinthian church, Paul made a second trip to Corinth.
Some of the Corinthians rebelled against and rejected Paul, who then left Corinth discouraged, humiliated, and sorrowful. Paul mentions another letter sent to the Corinthians between the letters of 1 and 2 Corinthians that was disciplinary in nature. It was also regarding the rebellion and misconduct of the Corinthian church. After sending this letter with Titus to the church at Corinth, Paul later met back up with Titus who confirmed that most of the Corinthians were repentant but that some still opposed Paul.
His third letter, 2 Corinthians, was sent in response to Titus’ update and to prepare the Corinthians for Paul’s third visit to the church. He begins his letter in love and abruptly changes tone to an uncomfortable and harsh rebuke stressing the intention was to win their affection and devotion for Christ. He spends much of the letter defending his conduct, teaching correct motives for following Christ, stressing his example as a faithfulservant, reminding aboutobedience to Christ, and driving home the importance of selfless giving and generosity.
Who wrote 1 Corinthians and who did they write it to?
1 Corinthians is a letter written by the Apostle Paul to the church in Corinth.
When did the events of 1 Corinthians happen?
Paul wrote this letter in approximately 55-56 AD.
Where was the setting of 1 Corinthians?
Paul wrote this letter to the Corinthian church while in Ephesus. The Corinth church had been established by Paul in about 52 AD. Corinth was an important trade and commerce hub located in ancient Greece, and had a diverse population well-known for idolatry and sexual immorality.
Paul had left the Corinthian church under the leadership of Priscilla and Aquila in 53 AD, and later received reports of the Corinthians' immoral and idolatrous behavior.
Paul responds to two letters to address disturbing reports from the household of Chloe, and to answer questions from the Corinthians about marriage and singleness, as well as to provide additional instructions for the Corinthian Christians and future generations of Christians.
Teaches the importance of using all that God provides for the edification and building up of the Body of Christ.
Stresses that we should not focus on self-interest or competition, but should be united within the Body of Christ in order to bring God glory in all we do.
Teaches the necessity of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and also about the resurrection of Christians.
Addresses the need for balance within our freedom in Christ while not using that freedom to cause others to stumble.
Summary
First Corinthians is a letter from the Apostle Paul to the Corinthian church. Corinth was a commerce hub between Italy and Asia and had many diverse travelers. Corinth had been ransacked in 146 B.C. by the Romans, rebuilt by Julius Caesar in 46 B.C. The city had been host to the renowned Isthmian Games which were second only to the Olympic Games.
The Corinthians worshiped Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty. They even created plays that highlighted drunkenness and immorality. Their immorality was so well known that Aristophanes made popular the Greek term korinthiazomai which was a synonym for sexual immorality and means “to act like a Corinthian''.
Paul had left the Corinthian church under the leadership of Priscilla and Aquila in A.D. 53 and likely wrote this letter around A.D. 56. Paul had heard of some disturbing conduct by the Corinth Church, as well as some questions that he sought to answer and provide instruction for. Because of the drastic immorality within the church, Paul’s letter is extremely confrontational, yet filled with vital instructions and hope for all believers.
Written as a response to the Corinthian immorality seeping into the Church of Corinth, Paul addressed many heavy topics of concern that are still rampant in today’s culture. Christians in this century can benefit from relevant wisdom and warnings throughout 1 Corinthians.
Additionally, Paul encourages the Corinthians constantly in how they, as well as future generations of Christians, are to come alongside fellow believers. We can also learn how to be in relationship with nonbelievers and find a wealth of guidance in how to rightly fellowship throughout 1 Corinthians. This wisdom is just as relevant and vital now as it was when Paul wrote it.
Paul doesn’t mince words, and this letter can be either incredibly offensive or incredibly humbling. Either way, it should certainly be taken to heart by all and each warning should be seen as incredibly relevant to each and every one of us alive yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
Who wrote the Books of 1 and 2 Thessalonians and who did they write it for?
The Apostle Paul wrote the books of 1 and 2 Thessalonians, which were letters to the church of Thessalonica.

Summary
1 and 2 Thessalonians are letters from the Apostle Paul to the church of Thessalonica. Thessalonica was a capital of the Roman province of Macedonia with a population of over 100,000. It had a harbor and was located on busy trade routes as well as the busy Egnatian Way. It was a free city, flourishing in trade and philosophy, that was governed by politarchs (Acts 17:6-8). The city was religiously committed to Greco-Roman pantheons, Egyptian cults, and imperial cults. There was also a large Jewish population.
Paul, Timothy, and Silas had previously preached in the Thessalonian synagogue and converted many of the Jews and pagans to Christianity. This led to Paul being charged with sedition against Caesar and being forced out of the city. He sent Timothy back to Thessalonica to check on the new believers because he was concerned about having left them so prematurely.
Timothy returned to Paul from Thessalonica with questions from the Thessalonian church. 1 Thessalonians is the first letter Paul wrote to the church of Thessalonica to patiently answer their many questions as a new church. Paul's goal was to encourage them to continue being faithful and obedient to Christ, even in times of trouble and persecution.
Breakdown
Paul opens his letter addressing the church of Thessalonica as a body of believers, versus as individuals. He begins by expressing the main concepts of faith in Christ. Throughout the letter, Paul focuses on reinforcing the basic gospel message and gives them, and future generations of believers, intimate instructions for their faith and practical applications for spiritual truth as new believers.
Paul also affirms that while new believers can obtain lots of practical guidance in their faith, mature believers can also learn how to mentor newer believers. He encourages all Christians to constantly be growing in relationship with God and to continue to become more like Christ.
Paul opens his second letter to the Thessalonians similarly to his first. He acknowledges himself as its author and identifies his companions. Some confusion had arisen from Paul’s first letter to the Thessalonians and he wrote this second letter to correct misunderstandings and combat some false teachings that had come up in the church.
1 Thessalonians teaches the imminent return of Christ, while 2 Thessalonians explains events that will happen before Christ returns. A common theme in both letters is to educate and encourage believers of the hope found in the Second Coming of Christ. This message continues to encourage Christians today that the Second Coming of Christ and the Day of the Lord draw nearer every day.
The reputation of the Thessalonians as faithful in times of persecution had been spreading, and Paul expressed his pleasure and gratitude for their growing faith. Paul closes his second letter to Thessalonica with encouragement in how these and future new believers can honor and glorify God in daily living in order to continue to become more like Christ.
How 1 and 2 Thessalonians encourage new believers
New believers are encouraged to be constantly praying for others, that they may be used by God to spread His love, mercy, truth, and goodness far and wide, and that we likewise are used in this way. We should be unified in faith, encouraging one another, edifying each other in the Word of God, and setting a Christ-like example to those around us, both believers and nonbelievers. We should pray for those who persecute us, that even they be used in the will and purpose of God’s great plan, to be used for His honor and glory.
The Apostle Paul’s letters to the Thessalonians are packed full of wisdom for new believers, but also great encouragement and reminders for mature believers in coming alongside newer Christians, and bold guidance in how a Christian should conduct their life with Jesus. He reminds the people to stand together and be unafraid and unashamed of the persecution Christians face. We should be encouraged in the same manner today.
