The phrase "the disciple whom Jesus loved" (Ancient Greek: ὁ μαθητὴς ὃν ἠγάπα ὁ Ἰησοῦς, romanized: ho mathētēs hon ēgapā ho Iēsous) or, in John 20:2; "the other disciple whom Jesus loved" (τὸν ἄλλον μαθητὴν ὃν ἐφίλει ὁ Ἰησοῦς, ton allon mathētēn hon ephilei ho Iēsous), is used six times in the Gospel of John, [1] but in ...
Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus. The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, "We have found the Messiah". [5] Andrew is called the Protokletos or "first-called". The gathering of the disciples in John 1:35–51 follows the many
John the Apostle is traditionally held to be the author of the Gospel of John, and many Christian denominations believe that he authored several other books of the New Testament (the three Johannine epistles and the Book of Revelation, together with the Gospel of John, are called the Johannine works), depending on whether he is distinguished ...
The Gospel of John, like all the gospels, is anonymous. [14] John 21:22 [15] references a disciple whom Jesus loved and John 21:24–25 [16] says: "This is the disciple who is testifying to these things and has written them, and we know that his testimony is true". [11]

The main difference here is that the Westcott-Hort text calls Simon the son of John instead of the son of Jona. In the Gospel of Matthew 16:17 both texts agree and say that Simon is the son of Jona (Βαριωνᾶ), while in John 21:21 there is disagreement again, with Westcott-Hort having Simon John (Σίμων Ἰωάνου) and both the ...
Only two of John's disciples follow Christ. One of those was Andrew, as we see in verse 40. The other is not known, although St. John Chrysostom says it was the author St. John. Euthymius notes that they followed Jesus so that they might know Him more fully and perhaps become his disciples rather than John's. [1]
Methodist theologian Joseph Benson calls this prayer "Our Lord’s Intercessory Prayer", because "it is considered as a pattern of the intercession he is now making in heaven for his people". [3] The New King James Version divides this chapter into three sections: John 17:1–5: Jesus Prays for Himself; John 17:6–19: Jesus Prays for His Disciples
