''In brief'': {{summary | text=An epistle is a writing or letter directed or sent to a person or group of persons. . The vast majority of the [[New Testament ]] contains letters (referred to as "epistles"). Some of these letters were sent to individuals ([[Philemon]], [[1 Timothy]], [[2 Timothy]], [[Titus]], [[3 John]]), others were sent to churches or other groups ([[Romans]] - [[2 Thessalonians]], [[Hebrews]] - [[Jude]]). The [[Revelation | Book of Revelation]] was not sent to a single church, but rather to a group of churches, as was [[1 Peter]] and possibly [[2 Peter]].}}
