Best Answer

A:

James and Jude, brothers of Jesus, are traditionally credited with writing the epistles that bear their names. It is possible that James was written early enough to have been written by the brother James, if somewhat unlikely. The Book of Jude was clearly written in the second century by an author who knew none of Jesus' contemporaries. For example, Jude 3 refers to the faith that was "once delivered unto the saints" - long ago. Therefore Jude could not really have written this one.

In summary, it is possible, although unlikely, that James wrote an epistle in the New Testament. Jude certainly did not.

What books of the Bible did the disciples write?

Most of the books of the New Testament were written by apostles or other disciples of Jesus Christ. Matthew the apostle wrote a gospel. John the apostle wrote a gospel, three epistles and Revelation. Peter the apostle wrote two epistles, although recent scholarship has indicated that "2 Peter" was written many decades after his death by a follower. James and Jude each wrote an epistle, but they are probably not the two apostles by those names but two others known as brothers of the Lord. Mark, a follower of Peter, wrote a gospel. Luke, a follower of Paul, wrote a gospel and the Acts of the Apostles. Paul, an apostle but not one of the twelve who followed Jesus Christ during his public life, wrote 13 epistles. The author of the Epistle to the Hebrews is unknown.
