(Greek: Τὸ κατὰ Ἰωάννην εὐαγγέλιον,
translit. To kata Iōánnēn euangélion;
also called the Gospel of John, the Fourth Gospel, or simply John)
.
-the Gospel According to John is 1 of the 4 ‘canonical gospels’ in the ‘new testament’-
.
(it traditionally appears 4th, after the synoptic gospels of ‘Matthew’, ‘Mark’, and ‘Luke’)
(‘John’ begins with the witness and affirmation of ‘John the Baptist’ and concludes with the death, burial, resurrection, and post-resurrection appearances of ‘Jesus’)
(although the ‘Gospel of John’ is anonymous, Christian tradition historically has attributed it to ‘John the Apostle’, son of Zebedee and one of Jesus’ ’12 Apostles’)
(the ‘gospel’ is so closely related in style and content to the three surviving ‘Johannine epistles’ that commentators treat the 4 books, along with the ‘Book of Revelation’, as a single corpus of ‘Johannine’ literature, albeit not necessarily written by the same author)
(‘C. K. Barrett’, and later ‘Raymond E. Brown’, suggested that a tradition developed around the “Johannine Community”, and that this tradition gave rise to the ‘gospel’)
(the discovery of a large number of ‘papyrus fragments’ of manuscripts with ‘Johannine’ themes has led more scholars to recognize that the texts were among the most influential in the early ‘Church’)
(the discourses contained with this gospel seem to be concerned with issues of the ‘church–synagogue debate’ at the time of composition)
(it is notable that in ‘John’, the community appears to define itself primarily in contrast to ‘Judaism’, rather than as part of a wider ‘Christian community’)
(though ‘christianity’ started as a movement within ‘Judaism’, it gradually separated from ‘judaism’ because of mutual opposition between the 2 religions)
