New Testament Books in Chronological Order

Slightly adapted from Robert H. Gundry, A Survey of the New Testament, 3 rd ed. (Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 1994), 480-481. This chart has been modified some according to my own reading.

This chart does not give dates as certainties. It is for your personal use and benefit only. Many of the dates listed above are based on a series of conclusions, which are in turn based on partial data. Many scholars, even within conservative, Evangelical circles disagree with the precise ordering given above. This area of discussion is one where charity, grace, and humility are called for above all.
