INTRODUCTION TO THE NEW TESTAMENT. VTI. THE LAST THREE EPISTLES OF PAUL. § 33. THE FACTS PRESUPPOSED IX THE SECOND EPISTLE TO TIMOTHY. It seems best to consider the Second Epistle first, because it records more tangible facts than do either 1 Tim. or Titus, and because it is natural to attempt to establish an historical connection between this letter, which was written in prison, and the four letters which have just-been investigated. When it was written Paul had been for some time in chains (i. 8, 16, ii. 9) and in Rome (i. 17). The primary cause of this imprisonment was his fulfilment of his apostolic calling (i. 12). His situation, however, is essentially different from that which obtained when Ephesians, Colos-sians. and Philemon, and even Philippians, were written. When he comforts himself aud his friend regarding his present captivity by remarking that the word of God is not bound, but can and must continue its course (ii. 9), he does not refer at all to his own preaching
