He is that disciple who (without mention by name) is spoken of in the Fourth Gospel as especially dear to Jesus (John 13:23; John 19:26; John 21:7, 20), and according to the traditional opinion is the author of the Apocalypse, Revelation 1:1, 4, 9; Revelation 21:2 Rec.; . In the latter part of his life he had charge of the churches in Asia Minor, and died there at a very advanced age. That be never came into Asia Minor, but died in Palestine somewhat in years, the following writers among others have attempted to prove, though by considerations far from satisfactory: Lützelberger, Die kirchl.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek name Ἰωάννης corresponds to the Hebrew name יוֹחָנָן (Yochanan), which is Strong's Hebrew entry 3110. This name appears in the Old Testament and is borne by several individuals, including a post-exilic priest and a son of King Josiah. Usage: The name Ἰωάννης is used in the New Testament to refer to several individuals, most notably John the Baptist and John the Apostle. It appears frequently in the Gospels and other New Testament writings. Context: • John the Baptist: John the Baptist is a prominent figure in the New Testament, known for his role as the forerunner to Jesus Christ. He is described as a prophet who preached repentance and baptized many, including Jesus. His ministry is detailed in all four Gospels. In Matthew 3:1-2 (BSB), it states, "In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea and saying, 'Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.'" • John the Apostle: John the Apostle, also known as John the Evangelist, is traditionally credited as the author of the Gospel of John, the three Epistles of John, and the Book of Revelation. He was one of the twelve apostles and is often referred to as "the disciple whom Jesus loved" (John 13:23, BSB). His writings emphasize themes of love, truth, and eternal life. • Other References: The name John also appears in reference to other individuals in the New Testament, such as John Mark, a companion of Paul and Barnabas, and John, the father of Simon Peter.
