The Gospel of John refers to an unnamed "Beloved Disciple" of Jesus who bore witness to the gospel's message. The editors of the Gospel, who record the Beloved Disciple's death, seem interested in the author's anonymity. Apparently this disciple of Jesus had not been well known, but had greatly outlived Peter.

  • The Gospel of John refers to an unnamed "Beloved Disciple" of Jesus who bore witness to the gospel's message. The editors of the Gospel, who record the Beloved Disciple's death, seem interested in the author's anonymity. Apparently this disciple of Jesus had not been well known, but had greatly outlived Peter. The apostle John was a historical figure, one of the "pillars" of the Jerusalem church after Jesus' death. Many scholars believe that John was martyred along with his brother, as Jesus predicts in Mark (Mark 10:39, Acts 12:1-2). The tradition that John lived to old age in Ephesus and that he wrote this gospel date from the late second century. Modern scholars do not regard John to have authored any of the texts ascribed to him.
