Authentic
The First Epistle to the Thessalonians, in the New Testament, ca. 51.
The First Epistle to the Corinthians, in the New Testament, ca. 53/54.

Pseudonymous
8. The Epistle to the Colossians, in the New Testament, ca. 65–75.
9. The Epistle to the Ephesians, in the New Testament, ca. 80. The letter was originally addressed to all Christians generally (“to the saints”), but later scribes inserted the phrase “who are in Ephesus” to make the address more specific. The earliest and best Greek manuscripts lack any references to the Ephesians.
10. The Epistle to the Hebrews, in the New Testament, ca. 60–90. Although frequently cited in late antiquity as a letter of Paul, and admitted into the New Testament canon on that basis, the work does not bear Paul's name and important patristic authors denied that Paul wrote it. Yet hints at the end (Heb. 13:22–25) seem to suggest that the anonymous author does want the reader to think that he is Paul.
11. The Second Epistle to the Thessalonians, in the New Testament, ca. 70–95.
12. The First Epistle to Timothy, in the New Testament, ca. 95–125.
13. The Second Epistle to Timothy, in the New Testament, ca. 95–125.
14. The Epistle to Titus, in the New Testament, ca. 95–125.
