General Epistles And Revelation

The letters that appear after the Pauline epistles in the New Testament were written by different people in differing styles. Hebrews is an early Christian sermon whose author is unknown. The books of James, 1 Peter, 2 Peter, 1 John, 2 John, 3 John, and Jude are sometimes called the “General” or “Catholic Epistles” since some of them are addressed to a broad readership rather than to specific congregations. The book of  Revelation is sometimes placed in a category by itself because of its distinctive writing style, but it is actually a letter that was addressed to seven congregations in Asia Minor.
