Genesis
Exodus
Leviticus
Numbers
Deuteronomy
-------------------------about 1400 BC
Joshua shortly after
Judges (c. 10th century BC)
Ruth (c. 10th century BC)
1-2 Samuel (8th-6th century BC)
1-2 Kings (6th-5th century BC)
1-2 Chronicles (400 BC would be the earliest possible date for composition)
Esther (5th century BC)
Job (c. 10th century BC at the earliest)
Lamentations is an eye witness account of babylons destroying Jerusalem in 586 BC
Psalms was written by many authors at different times
Proverbs was written mostly by solomon (900BC) but some may be older
Ecclesiastes started by solomon but added to so from 900BC to about 350 BC---guessing
Ezra-Nehemiah are a group of letters put together as books (one book in the Torah) in about 400 BC again a good guess
song of songs---soloman 900 BC
Jeremiah and Ezekiel about 600 BC
Daniel in his lifetime between 605 and 530 BC
Hosea----
Attributed to Hosea. His prophesies cover the period from 753-715 BC.
Joel
Attributed to Joel. The date of the book is uncertain, with dates ranging from the early pre-exilic (800's BC) to late post-exilic period (500-400 BC).
Amos
Attributed to Amos. Dates between 767 and 753 BC.
Obadiah
Attributed to Obadiah. Dates between 847 and 841 BC.
Jonah
Attributed to Jonah. Dates to the 700's BC.
Micah
Attributed to Micah. Dates between 740 and 695 BC.
Nahum
Attributed to Nahum. Two different dates are generally accepted as possibilities for Nahum's ministry: 661-612 BC or 722-701 BC.
Habakkuk
Attributed to Habakkuk. Dates to sometime between 612 and 587 BC.
Zephaniah
Attributed to Zephaniah. Dates sometime during the reign of Josiah (640-609 BC)
Haggai
Attributed to Haggai. It is possible to date his prophesies very exactly (since he gave us the precise day he uttered his prophesies):
1:1 August 29, 520 BC
1:15 September 21, 520 BC
2:19-20 December 18, 520 BC
Zechariah
Chapters 1-8 are attributed to Zechariah and can be dated precisely.
1:1 October, 520 BC
1:7 February 15, 519 BC
7:1 December 7, 518 BC
Chapters 9-14 were not written by Zechariah and cannot be easily dated. That they were not written by Zechariah is clear from both internal and external evidence.
9-11 were written by Jeremiah, according to Matthew 27:9-10, which quotes Zecharaiah 11:12-13 and attributes it to Jeremiah. The date would then be sometime between 627 and 580 BC
Chapters 12-14 are titled "an oracle" and are attributed to no one.
Malachi
Based on Mark 1:2-3, the book called "Malachi" was apparently actually written by Isaiah, since there the author of Mark quotes from "Malachi" but attributes it to Isaiah. The title "Malachi", taken from 1:1 is simply the Hebrew phrase "my messenger", and the word is so translated in 3:1.
The date of the book would then be sometime between 740 and 690 BC.
New Testament
Matthew Attributed to Matthew. Probably written sometime between AD 55 and 75.
Mark Attributed to John Mark. Probably written before AD 70, and before the books of Matthew or Luke were composed.
Luke Attributed to Luke. Since the book of Acts (also attributed to Luke) was written afterward, and since Acts was apparently written before Paul's execution during the reign of Nero, the book of Luke is apparently relatively early, perhaps before AD 60.
John Attributed to John. Probably composed between AD 85 and 90, though some scholars have suggested dates as early as AD 45 and as late as AD 110.
Acts Attributed to Luke. Probably composed around AD 64 (Paul's imprisonment in Rome was from AD 61-63).
about Pauls writing---historically Paul was believed to be nearly blind at the end of his ministry so though the words are pauls another hand may have penned them.
Romans Attributed to Paul. Written AD 56 or 57.
1 Corinthians Attributed to Paul. Written AD 55.
2 Corinthians Attributed to Paul. Written AD 56.
Galatians Attributed to Paul. Written AD 52
Ephesians Attributed to Paul. Written AD 63.
Philippians Attributed to Paul. Written between AD 59 and AD 61.
Colossians Attributed to Paul. Written AD 62.
1 Thessalonians Attributed to Paul. Written AD 50.
2 Thessalonians Attributed to Paul. Written AD 50.
1 Timothy Attributed to Paul. Written between AD 62 and AD 67.
2 Timothy Attributed to Paul. Written between AD 62 and AD 67.
Titus Attributed to Paul. Written AD 63.
Philemon Attributed to Paul. Written between AD 56 and AD 62.
Hebrews-----Written between AD 66 and AD 70 (certainly written before the destruction of Jerusalem AD 70).
James Attributed to James. Written between AD 45 and AD 50.
about Peter---again though the words were definately Peters the words may have been penned by Mark who was Peters assistant in his ministry
1 Peter Attributed to Peter. Written between AD 62 and AD 64.
2 Peter Attributed to Peter. Written between AD 64 and AD 68.
1 John Attributed to John. Written between AD 85 and AD 90.
2 John Attributed to John. Written AD 90.
3 John Attributed to John. Written AD 90.
Jude Attributed to Jude. Written between AD 60 and AD 65.
Revelation Attributed to John. Written between AD 54 and AD 68 or perhaps after Johns other books as late as AD 92 depending on how many times John was on Patmos legend states John died on Patmos but no substantial evidence to back this up
I hope this helps this information came from Quartz Hill school of theology and there are others who would argue that these dates may be in error
