It is generally not disputed that Colossians is a genuine letter from Paul (1:1). In the early church, those who discuss authorship attribute it to Paul. However, in the 19th century, some thought that the heresy refuted in chapter 2 was second-century Gnosticism and not a Colossian heresy. A careful analysis of chapter 2 notably shows that the heresy in question is less developed than the agnosticism of the second- and third-century Gnostic teachers, further evidence in favor of Pauline writing. Also, the seeds of what later became second-century Gnosticism were present in the first century and were already making their way into the churches, especially in the second and third centuries. Consequently, it is not necessary to place Colossians in the second century at a very late date.
