Other scholars who do believe that Paul wrote Titus date its composition from the circumstance that it was written after Paul's visit to Crete (Titus 1:5). [16] This visit could not be the one referred to in the Acts of the Apostles 27:7, [ 17 ] when Paul was on his voyage to Rome as a prisoner, and where he continued a prisoner for two years.
If Paul was the author of the letter, then it was probably written from Rome during Paul's first imprisonment, [19] and probably soon after his arrival there in the year 62, four years after he had parted with the Ephesian elders at Miletus. However, scholars who dispute Paul's authorship date the letter to between 70 and 80 AD. [7]
Paul actually writes that it was perhaps God's purpose that Onesimus initially ran away for the purpose of becoming a Christian and then return as a fellow Christian. Paul calls him "his son" (v.10) whom he "begot while still in chains." The message to Philemon is to accept Onesimus back as the "son" of a "prisoner of Jesus Christ."
