“The seven brief letters of James, 1 and 2 Peter, 1, 2 and 3 John, and Jude usually given at the end of the New Testament just before the book of Revelation, have never received the same attention from exegetes as has been given to the four Gospels and the Letters of Paul. [...]Bede chose the final part of the New Testament, the book of Acts, these seven Letters, and the book of Revelation, when he first began his attempts at written exegesis of the sacred scripture early in the eighth century.”
