Book of 2 Timothy

2 Timothy is the name of a book in the New Testament of the Bible. In many Christian Bibles, 2 Timothy is divided into 4 chapters and is ordered as the 16th of the 27 books in the New Testament. The following is from J.B. Tidwell's The Bible Book by Book, published in 1916.

This letter was written from Rome just before his martyrdom A. D. 67. It was written to further instruct Timothy and to explain his own personal affairs. It is the last letter written by Paul, a sort of last will and testimony and is of great importance as it tells as how he fared just before his death. It is more personal in tone than First Timothy and shows us how very pitiable was his plight in these last days.
