"Acts covers Pauls death so it had to have been written later."
You have posted this twice, now where in the book of Acts do you find this. The Acts in my bible only goes up to chapter 28 and ends with Paul's first prison stay in Rome. That would be around 61 A.D. Maybe I didn't get all of Acts. I know I got a good price on the bible, maybe too good.
Honest wagglebee, the Book of Acts does NOT cover Paul's death.
There is no self-respecting CATHOLIC scholar who would claim that.
It simply doesn't. It ends with Paul arrested, in Rome, awaiting his hearing before the emperor.
