Question: When did St Paul write First Corinthians!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
1 Corinthians, perhaps written in 56 - 57, consists entirely of response to problems in, and questions from, the Corinthian Christians, which Paul heard of in letters they sent him, or by word of mouth from those who visited him!. The problems included the existence of factions and faction-fighting; whether Christians should eat food that had been offered to idols; Christians taking other Christians to law in pagan courts; behaviour at the Lord's supper; and our understanding of the resurrection!.

Traditionally he wrote it from Ephesus in 54AD!. It's possible that it was actually written up to 4 years later!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
