Roman calendar \Roman calendar\       The calendar of the ancient Romans, from which our modern       calendars are derived. It is said to have consisted       originally of ten months, Martius, Aprilis, Maius, Junius,       Quintilis, Sextilis, September, October, November, and       December, having a total of 304 days. Numa added two months,       Januarius at the beginning of the year, and Februarius at the       end, making in all 355 days. He also ordered an intercalary       month, Mercedinus, to be inserted every second year. Later       the order of the months was changed so that January should       come before February. Through abuse of power by the pontiffs       to whose care it was committed, this calendar fell into       confusion. It was replaced by the Julian calendar. In       designating the days of the month, the Romans reckoned       backward from three fixed points, the calends, the nones, and       the ides. The calends were always the first day of the month.       The ides fell on the 15th in March, May, July (Quintilis),       and October, and on the 13th in other months. The nones came       on the eighth day (the ninth, counting the ides) before the       ides. Thus, Jan. 13 was called the ides of January, Jan. 12,       the day before the ides, and Jan. 11, the third day before       the ides (since the ides count as one), while Jan. 14 was the       19th day before the calends of February.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Romans, Epistle to the       This epistle was probably written at Corinth. Phoebe (Rom. 16:1)       of Cenchrea conveyed it to Rome, and Gaius of Corinth       entertained the apostle at the time of his writing it (16:23; 1       Cor. 1:14), and Erastus was chamberlain of the city, i.e., of       Corinth (2 Tim. 4:20).                The precise time at which it was written is not mentioned in       the epistle, but it was obviously written when the apostle was       about to "go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints", i.e.,       at the close of his second visit to Greece, during the winter       preceding his last visit to that city (Rom. 15:25; comp. Acts       19:21; 20:2, 3, 16; 1 Cor. 16:1-4), early in A.D. 58.                It is highly probable that Christianity was planted in Rome by       some of those who had been at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost       (Acts 2:10). At this time the Jews were very numerous in Rome,       and their synagogues were probably resorted to by Romans also,       who in this way became acquainted with the great facts regarding       Jesus as these were reported among the Jews. Thus a church       composed of both Jews and Gentiles was formed at Rome. Many of       the brethren went out to meet Paul on his approach to Rome.       There are evidences that Christians were then in Rome in       considerable numbers, and had probably more than one place of       meeting (Rom. 16:14, 15).                The object of the apostle in writing to this church was to       explain to them the great doctrines of the gospel. His epistle       was a "word in season." Himself deeply impressed with a sense of       the value of the doctrines of salvation, he opens up in a clear       and connected form the whole system of the gospel in its       relation both to Jew and Gentile. This epistle is peculiar in       this, that it is a systematic exposition of the gospel of       universal application. The subject is here treated       argumentatively, and is a plea for Gentiles addressed to Jews.       In the Epistle to the Galatians, the same subject is discussed,       but there the apostle pleads his own authority, because the       church in Galatia had been founded by him.                After the introduction (1:1-15), the apostle presents in it       divers aspects and relations the doctrine of justification by       faith (1:16-11:36) on the ground of the imputed righteousness of       Christ. He shows that salvation is all of grace, and only of       grace. This main section of his letter is followed by various       practical exhortations (12:1-15:13), which are followed by a       conclusion containing personal explanations and salutations,       which contain the names of twenty-four Christians at Rome, a       benediction, and a doxology (Rom. 15:14-ch. 16).
