Letter of Paul to the Colossians, likewise called Epistle of St. Paul the Apostle to the Colossians, condensing Colossians, twelfth book of the New Testament, addressed to Christians at Colossae, Asia Minor, whose assemblage was established by St. Paul the Apostle's partner Epaphras.
The created philosophy of the letter, many accept, demonstrates that it was either formed by Paul in Rome around 62 CE, rather than during a previous detainment, or by one of his followers. Some inquiry Pauline origin based on jargon, style, and symbolism and for its affinities with the Letter of Paul to Philemon; it is generally viewed as one of the "deutero-Pauline" (in the practice of Paul however not composed by him) epistles.
