The Book of 2 JohnI. Title
The title comes from the name of the author; 2 John is the second of three letters ascribed to the apostle.
II. Author and Setting
The book does not identify its author by name. He is simply called
"the elder". However, the style and structure of the
letter seem very similar to what was seen in 1 John, and so a
common author may be assumed.
The date of writing is hard to place, though AD 90 seems a good
guess.
