"Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity."

(First Letter to the Corinthians, 13:1,13)

The First Letter to the Corinthians is one of the texts that make up the New Testament, which Christian tradition and almost unanimous scholars attribute to Paul of Tarsus. The letter is addressed to the Christian community in the Greek city of Corinth and written in Ephesus (16.8), according to scholars it was composed in the chronological span of 53-57, or more strictly in 53/54 according to some others.

"To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world."

(Letter to the Romans, 1:7-8)

The Letter to the Romans or Epistle to the Romans is a New Testament Greek language text written by Paul of Tarsus, the apostle to the Gentiles (Romans 11:13) and addressed to the Christians of Rome, whom he described as known "throughout the world" (Romans 1:8) for their great faith. The letter, the longest of those composed by Paul, is considered his most important theological legacy. Biblical scholars agree that it was composed to explain that salvation is offered through the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The Acts of the Apostles is a text contained in the New Testament, written in ancient Greek. Its final editing probably dates back to around 80-90, but dates around 60-70 AD have also been proposed. Christian tradition attributes it to Luke, Paul's co-worker and author of the Gospel according to Luke.

Acts consists of 28 chapters and tells the story of the Christian community from the ascension of Jesus (1:6-11) until Paul's arrival in Rome (28:16), covering a period from approximately 30 to 63 AD. In addition to Paul, the work also dwells at length on the work of the Apostle Peter.

The book describes the rapid development, expansion and organisation of the Christian witness first among the Jews and then in the nations bordering the Mediterranean.

The Gospel according to John is one of the four canonical gospels contained in the New Testament of the Christian Bible.

Written in Greek, it consists of 21 chapters and, like the other gospels, narrates the ministry of Jesus. The Gospel according to John differs significantly from the other three gospels, known as the Synoptics, although it seems to presuppose knowledge of at least the Gospel according to Mark, from which it sometimes reproduces peculiar expressions. While the Synoptics are based on Jesus' preaching of the Kingdom of God, the Fourth Gospel goes deeper into the question of Christ's identity.

The Gospel according to Luke (Greek: Κατὰ Λουκᾶν εὐαγγέλιον) is one of the canonical gospels of the New Testament and is divided into 24 chapters. It narrates the life of Jesus and opens with the miraculous births of John the Baptist and Jesus, then describes the latter's ministry in Galilee, made up of preaching, exorcisms and miracles; after revealing his divine nature to the disciples with the transfiguration, Jesus goes to Jerusalem, where he is crucified and buried, then rises again, appears to his disciples and finally ascends to heaven.

The Gospel according to Mark (Ancient Greek: Κατὰ Μᾶρκον) is the second of the four canonical gospels of the New Testament. It is written in Koinè Greek and, according to the hypothesis most widely shared by scholars, its final editing dates back to around 65-70, probably in Rome, on the basis of previous oral and written traditions, probably partly formulated in Aramaic. It consists of 16 chapters and, like the other gospels, narrates the ministry of Jesus, describing him in particular as the Son of God and providing numerous linguistic clarifications, designed especially for Latin-speaking and generally non-Jewish readers.

The gospel recounts the life of Jesus from his baptism at the hands of John the Baptist to the empty tomb and the announcement of his resurrection, but focuses mainly on the events of the last week of his life. The concise narrative portrays Jesus as a man of action, an exorcist, a healer and a miracle worker. Jesus is called the "Son of Man", the "Son of God", and the "Christ" (Greek translation of "Messiah").

The Minor Prophets (also called the Twelve Prophets), in Hebrew תרי עשר (tərê ʿaśar, 'the twelve' in Aramaic), in Greek Μικροί προφήτες (mikròi profétes, 'minor prophets') or Δωδεκαπροφήτον (Dodekaproféton, 'twelve prophets'), are the authors of twelve prophetic books in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible.

They are defined as "minor" because of the brevity of their books as opposed to those of the other authors of prophetic books, called major: Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Daniel.

The order of the twelve books is: Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi.

The Book of Daniel (in Hebrew: דניאל?, Daniy'èl; in ancient Greek: Δανιήλ, Danièl; in Latin: Daniel) is a text contained in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. It describes the events set in the exile of Babylon (587-538 BC) of the prophet Daniel, a wise Jew who remains faithful to God, and apocalyptic visions foretelling the Son of Man-Messiah and the kingdom of God.

According to the hypothesis most widely accepted by scholars, the final editing of the book took place in Judea in the Maccabean era, around the time of the death of Antiochus IV Epiphanes, which occurred in 164 BC. It is written in Hebrew but contains an extensive section in Aramaic (Dan 2:4-7:28). The Greek versions (the "Septuagint" and Theodotion) and the Syriac Peshitta also contain some sections absent from the Masoretic text (Prayer of Azariah and Song of the Three Young Men in the Furnace; Story of Susanna; Bel and the Dragon), for which a Semitic original is assumed.

The Book of Ezekiel (Hebrew יחזקאל, yehzqè'l; Greek Ιεζεκιήλ, iezekiél; Latin Ezechièl) is a text contained in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible.

It is written in Hebrew and, according to the hypothesis most shared by scholars, the final editing of the book took place in Judea in the fifth century BC, on the basis of previous oracles attributed to the prophet Ezekiel dated between about 592-571 BC, proffered in the Kingdom of Judah and the Exile of Babylon.

It consists of 48 chapters and the specific theme of the book is the invitation to submission to God, always with his people even if they are in exile in Babylon: in the end Israel will be victorious.
