Some critics claim that Salome was the sister of Mary, the mother of Jesus, in which case John w^ould be the Lord's first cousin. This, in a measure, might account for that close relationship and special intimacy granted to the beloved disciple, and also the final committal of the Virgin to John's care (John xix. 26, 27). St. John, similar to all the other Apostles, save Judas Iscariot, was a Galilean. By his pious mother he was trained in all that constituted the ordinary education of Jewish boyhood. Though not taught in the schools at Jerusalem, yet by the periodical pilgrimage to that city, he became familiar with the stately worship of the Temple. It must be conceded that the inhabitants of his district would also have an influence over him. To a great extent they had remained untouched by the culture of the rest of the nation, and ignorant of the glosses of tradition, they kept strictly the old simple

They were industrious, hardy and warUke. This influence may account for the fiery temper which earned for him and his brother James the name of " Sons of thunder " (Mark iii. 17). Galilee was not so remote but that the political changes which agitated the nation would also be subject for discussion among the fishermen whilst plying their vocation. The influence of Judas of Gamola, the great teacher of the freedom of Israel against Rome, must not only have been felt, but also awakened aspirations in the breast of the younger men. Early in life John formed an intimate fellowship with Peter, and learned to admire and love the impetuosity of this older Notwithstanding such environments as would lead friend. to develop his fiery nature, there was in him another element which, in after years, was fully developed, and made him

From that day the whole tenor of the life of John was changed. The disciple of the Baptist was now a follower of Jesus. At once he had an interview with his

maria (iv. 8). John, then, for an uncertain interval of time, resumed his former occupation. Jesus visits him, and again calls him, possibly more than once (Matt. iv. 18, 21, Luke v. 1-11), to become an Apostle and fisher of men. He leaves his chosen vocation and takes up the work in God's spiritual kingdom, being joined, at the same time, by his brother James, and also, Peter, a chosen three whose number was soon to be augmented to twelve, not as disciples only, but as special representatives, to be termed Apostles. In this list the foremost names have always been, John, James, and Peter, sons of Zebedee and Jonah. They belonged to the innermost circle of the Lord's friends, and unquestionably John was foremost in his confidence and love. Peter, John, and James were with him in the chamber of death when he raised the daughter of Jairus (Mark v. 37-42), in the glory of the transfiguration (Matt. xvii. 1, 2), when he foretold them of the destruction of Jerusalem (Mark xiii. 3, in this instance Andrew was present), and in the agony of Gethsemane (Matt, In this group Peter w^as always the chief spokesxxvi. 37). man, owing to his impetuous nature, yet to John belongs the more memorable distinction of being the disciple whom Jesus loved, and consequently the nearest and dearest to the Master, which love, in turn, was reciprocated with a more single and undivided heart than that portrayed in any of the other

notwithstanding the sorrows and terrors of that ocbuoyed up by that love which is stronger than death, he followed, accompanied by a few faithful women, to the place of crucifixion, and there he was to be a son to that mother who was then left desolate (xix, 26, 27). It would appear that the Sabbath which followed, John spent with the same faithful believers, and regardless of the denial of Peter he does not break his old friendship, and on Easter morning they go to visit the sepulchre. To them Mary of Magdala first runs with the information that the sepulchre is empty (xx. 2); and together they were first to see w^hat the strange words meant. John is first at the tomb, but Peter, the less restrained by awe, is the first to enter (xx. 4-8). After remaining about Jerusalem for at least eight days, together they return to Galilee and seek refreshment in their suspense by resuming their former occupation (xxi. 1-3). Here the dififerex\t characteristics of the two companions shew themselves.

The date of John's final departure from Jerusalem is unknown. It is also uncertain whether or not he journeyed direct to Ephesus. It may be confidently assumed that he was not at Ephesus before the work of the Apostle Paul had been completed. It may be safely affirmed that
he ministered at Ephesus during the
latter part of his life;

but what was the extent of his work and the circumstances of his outward life, we are hopelessly left in doubt. He is

Among the many traditions w^hich cluster around the name of John, the three following deserve more than a passing notice: Once going to bathe at Ephesus and perceiving Cerinthus within, he immediately rushed out crying, "Let us fly, lest even the bath-house fall on us, because Cerinthus, the enemy of the truth, is within."

Third 0[)inion " The Fourth Gospel is not the production of the Apostle John. It was attributed to him about the year A. D. 100. The discourses are almost entirely fictitious but the narrative parts contain valuable traditions, ascending in part to the Apostle John." This is the opinion of Renan, Weizsaecker, and Michael Nicolas. Fourth Opinion " The Fourth Gospel is in no sense the work of the Apostle John. And whether, as regards the facts or the discourses which are reported in it, it is not a historic book; it is a work of the imagination and in part allegorical, concocted about the year 150, in which the author has proposed to himself, not to recount actually the life of Jesus, but to make believe in the idea that he himself had formed of Jesus." This constitutes the radical view, and with some variations held by Baur, Schw.egler, Strauss, Zeller, Volkmar, Helgenfield, Schenkel, Scholten, Renille, Tayler, and Iloltzmann.

He relies chiefly on the strangeness of such language and thoughts as those of St. John coming from a Galilean fisherman, and the dift'erence between the representations of the person and manner of the speech of Jesus given by the Apostle and the Synoptists. The Probabilia aroused a multitude of critics who so thoroughly replied to it that Bretschneider retracted his opinion, and admitted that his objections had been fully answered. No other opponent of the genuineness of the Gospel appeared until 1835, when Dr. Strauss, in his Life of Jesus, renewed the contest. He was answei-ed by Neander, Tholuck, Hase, Liicke, and others.

Several books of the New Testament they ascribe to the effort, made at a later day, to bridge over this gulf; and the Fourth Gospel is a product of this pacifying tendency, affirming it to have been written about the middle of the second century, by a Christian of Gentile birth, who assumed the name of John in order to give an apostolical sanction to

Historical Evidences.

In considering the historical evidences for the Johannine authorship of the Fourth Gospel, it is necessary to bear in mind that it is agreed by all who maintain this position that
the book was written towards the close of the
tirst

century,

and

time when the Synoptic Gospels had gained general currency; also, that the substance of its record deals with problems which belong to the life of the Church, and to a

any modern author. What remains of the letters, and fragments few in number that rep-

resent the earlier literature of the second century, give very


little

scope for the direct use of the

New

Testament.

Regarding these ancient testimonies there is one point, too frequently overlooked, upon which special stress should be laid, and that is, the main evidence for the genuineness of the Gospels is of an entirely different character from that adduced to prove the authenticity of any classical work. It is not the testimony of a few eminent Christian writers to their private opinions, but the evidence which they aflbrd of the whole body of Christians and this respecting books in which they were deeply interested and such books as were the very foundation of that faith which separated them from that world which exposed them to hatred, scorn, and persecution, and which often demanded the sacrifice of life itself.

quoted the criticisms of Dionysius of Alexandria on the Apocalypse. The unanimity of the churches during the second half of the second century, although widely separated, in the acceptance of the Fouth Gospel, as the production of St. John, is such an inexplicable fact supposing it to have been forged that some of the destructive critics have resorted to the assumption that the early Christians were not critical and accepted as authentic any writing which seemed edifying, without an examination of its authority. This is a mere assumpti(m contradicted by the facts in the case. In the preface to his Gospel

What was this but a critical purpose to separate the uncertain and doubtful accounts of Jesus from those well-ascertained and verified? This gives sanction to the idea that critical judgment was exercised in the Apostolic Church, and that influence must have produced an effect in the succeeding age. It is a well-known fact that many apocryphal and doubtInstead of ful Gospels were in circulation at the beginning. being hostile to Christ they were zealous to exalt him to the utmost, to heap miracle on miracle; to paint the lily, and add a perfume to the violet.

In the phrase, " we know that his testimony is true," we have either a real or forged attestation to the genuineness of the Gospel. If the Gospel had been forged at a period later than that of St. John, what possible credit could its author have supposed would he given to an anonymous witness? forger would have named his pretended authority.

Norton observes, "According to ancient accounts, St, John wrote his Gospel at Ephesus, over the church in which city he presided during the latter part of his long life. It is not improbable, that, before his death, its circulation had been confined to the members of that church. Thence copies of it would be afterwards obtained; and the copy for transcription was, we may suppose, accompanied by the strong attestation which we now find, given by the church, or the elders of the church, to their full faith in the accounts which it contained, and by the concluding remark made by the writer

There is no good reason for questioning the statement that he associated with the Apostles John, Andrew and Philip. Irenseus, who had seen him in his youth, says, " I can tell the place in which the blessed Polycarp sat and taught, and his going out and coming in, and the manner of his life, and the form of his person, and the discourses he made to the people, and how he related his conversation with John and others who had seen the Lord," {Letter to Florinas).

Although the quotation is anonymous, yet it is taken from a writing, and the context makes it highly probable that the passage is from Papias' " Exposition." The main value of the testimony of Polycarp and Papias lies in the fact that they represent what may justly be termed a School of St. John. While it is possible that Papias never saw John, yet he had a strong point of connection with the Apostolic body, for, at Hierapolis, he conversed with two
daughters of the Apostle Philip (Eusebius Eccl. Hist. v. iii. c. 39), and had studied with Polycarp. The anonymous author of the Epistle to Diognetus re-

The first half of the second century presents us with a name deserving of special mention. Justin Martyr was born
about the year 89, and was thus a contemporary of the Apostle John. His acquaintance with the church was very His writings consist of his Apologies, addressed extensive. to the Roman Emperor, the Senate and the people, written about the year 140, and a dialogue in defense of Christianity with Trypho the Jew, written somewhat later.

From these he quotes as the authentic and recognized sources of knowledge reflectins; the life and teachings of the Savior. There is no citation by Justin, from the " Memoirs," which is not found in the canonical Gospels. He cites our present canon, and particularly the Four Gospels, continually, about two hundred times.

To affirm that the autliQr of the Fourth Gospel, in this instance, as has been claimed, borrows from Justin, is to do violence to the ordinary use of language. Justin puts the concluding part forth as a serious proposition which, as it stands, is idle and betrays its nonoriginality,

Justin's views of the doctrine of the

Logos were more

or less influenced by Philo and the Alexandrian philosophy, but the doctrine of the Incarnation was utterly foreign to that

and could only have been derived from the Gospel of John. Frequently he speaks in language similar to that of John (i. 14) of the Logos as " made flesh," or as " the Logos himself who took form and became man " [First Apol. c. 5, With reference to the deit}' of the Logos and his instru&c.). mental agency in creation note especially, " through him God created all things (2 Apol. c. 6 comp.

This passage is a part of a very long comparison instituted between the twenty- second Psalm and the recorded events of Christ's life. The argument would be that the " only-begotten"(Ps.xxii. 20, 21) of the Psalm referred to Christ, which might be fully appreciated by Trypho, and perfectly valid

Justin uses the following peculiar language "The Aposhave written " that at the baptism of Jesus, " as he came up from the water the Holy Spirit, as a dove, lighted upon him," (Dial. c. 88). The descent of the Holy Spirit as a dove is mentioned only by Matthew and John (Matt. iii. 16; John i. 32, 33). This is the only place in which Justin uses the expression, " the Apostles have written." These references can be farther extended, but the passages

There is a fragment entitled On the Resurrection, which belongs to the time of Justin Martyr, and in it we read, " The Logos of God, who was {or became) his Son, came to us clothed in the flesh', revealing both himself and the Father, giving to us in himself the resurrection from the dead and the eternal life which follows," (c. 1. comp.

It is in

evidence that near the close of the second century the

Fourth Gospel was not only received by the Church, but it was also widely disseminated, which could not have been true, had it not also been generally known prior to that time. Origen was the greatest scholar of that age, and one of the most distinguished of any age, and the most prolific writer of the ancient church. If there had ever been any doubts as to the authenticity of John's Gospel, it could not have escaped his knowledge. Born in the year 185 of Christian parents, from his birth to his death by martyrdom, in 254, he lived under the influence of the Christian religion and breathed its spirit.

The legitimate conclusion is, that it was accepted by the founders of the various Gnostic sects, and received as evidence and if so, also by the Catholic Christians, who would hardly have borrowed a spurious work from their opponents. It was then generally received, both by the Gnostics and their opponents, between the years a. d. 120 and 130. Before leaving this division of the subject it may be

The Testimony of Celsus.

Near the middle of the second century lived Celsas, a celebrated heathen philosopher, and particularly noted as an
adversary of Christianity. His treatise against Christianity was replied to by Origen. The former is lost, but the latter remains. Celsus professed to derive his statements concerning the history of Christ on " the writings of his disciples,"
(Origen, Cels. ii. 13); and his accounts are manifestly based on the four Gospels, although the authors are not named. He
refers to several circumstances

peculiar to the narrative of

John, as the blood which flowed from the body of Jesus at the crucifixion (Origen, Cels. ii. 36; comp. John xix. 34); the fact that Christ " after his death arose, and showed the marks of his punishment, and how his hands had been pierced" (Cels. ii. 55 comp. John xx. 25, 27) that the Jews " challenged Jesus in the temple to produce some clear proof that he was the Son of God" [Cels. i. 67; comp. John ii. 18; X. 23, 24); alludes to the cry of Jesus, "I thirst," recorded only in John (Cels. ii. 37; comp. John xix. 28), and further says that Jesus "after rising from the dead showed himself secretly to one woman only, and to his boon companions," Here the first part of (Cels. ii. 70; comp.

Internal Evidences of the Authorship of the Fourth


Gospel.

The authenticity of the Fourth Gospel is also disputed from internal evidence, which may be distributed under three heads: 1. Its difference from the three Synoptics; 2. Its dift'erence from the Apocalypse; 3. Its difference from the

writings of St. Paul.

In all matters relating to the Fourth Gospel, it should be accepted that the book itself is its best interpreter, and should form satisfactory evidence of its origin. The internal evidences of its authorship may be treated indirectly and directly. The following proofs maybe enumerated under the, indirect

It was difficult for the Greek and the Roman to understand the Jew, for to them he remained an enigma owing partly to his proud reserve, and doubtless to a greater extent, the wide difference between Eastern and Western modes of thought.

as to the usages of his nation in the early This being true, then a Gentile would be more likely to go astray. It may be safely affirmed that the intricate combination of Jewish and Gentile elements in Palestine between a. d. 1 and a. d. 70 was such that no one but a Jew living in the country at the time would be able to master them; and that the almost total destruction of the Jewish element in the latter part of the century would render a proper appreciation of the circumstances a matter of the utmost difficulty even to a careful antiquarian. As antiquarian research in that age was hardly known, it does not seem possible that one would undertake it in order to give an accurate setting to a historical fiction. Could it be possible that a Greek of the second century, or even the last quarter of the first would have gcrne through a course of archaeological study, necessary for attempting the writing of the Fourth Gospel? He must have fallen into far more serious errors than those which critics have assumed to point out. There is substantial indirect evidence to prove that the writer of the Fourth Gospel was a Jew, and a Jew of Palestine, who was an eye-witness of most of the events which he relates. If this can be reasonably proved, then the circle of possible authors is very much restricted. There .s further evidence which may be adduced to show that he was an Apostle, and moreover he was the Apostle John.

The people of Judfea were " His own people" (i, 11); w^hen Christ first entered the Holy City, he claimed the Temple as being "the house of His Father" (ii. 16); the Scriptures can not be broken (x. 35) that which is written in the prophets (vi. salvation is of the Jews (iv. 22) Moses wrote of Christ 45) (v. 46) the types of the Old Testament given in the brazen the manna (vi. 32) serpent (iii. 14) the water from the rock (vii. 37) all applied to Christ by Himself as of certain and acknowledged significance; Abraham saw his day (viii, the hatred of the Jews prefigured in the words "written 56) in their Law, They hated me without a cause " (xv. 25) much that He did was done " that the Scripture might be

essential differences of Judaism and Christianity, and between them raised a barrier, and at the beginning of the second century the growing Church substituted the school of Alexandria for the influence of Judaism, 1. The author's great topographical knowledge, which is used with ease and precision, is more or less conclusive that he was of Palestine. The desolation of Jerusalem was complete and no creative genius could call its lost site into being. The writer is evidently at home in the city, and knows much which may be learned from independent testimony. He lives again in the past and mentions locations with simplicity and In speaking of a fresh place he commonly throws certainty. some fact respecting it, adding clearness to the narrative. in If a forger had undertaken this he would have avoided such gratuitious statements, as being unnecessary, and likely to Thus Bethany is " nigh unto Jerusalem, lead to detection. about fifteen furlongs oft",'' (xi. 18); another, " Bethany beyond Jordan," (i. 28), a place which had been forgotten in the time of Origen, but obviously distinguished from the familiar one near Jerusalem; Cana of Galilee (ii. 1, 11, iv. 46, xxi. 2), thus clearly distinguished, but not noticed by any earlier writer; Ephraim situated "near the wilderness," (xi, 54) may be identical with Ophrah (I Sam. xiii. 17); ^non " near to Salim," (iii. 23), although not known from other sources, but the form of the name is a sure indication of the genuineness

he had healed, in the Temple (v. 14); Jesus went "beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized" (x. 40); "Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him" (xxi. 30); on the eve of the Passion Jesus was in the "country near to the wiklerness, into a city called Ephraim" (xi. 54); Christ spoke certain memorable words at Capernaum (vi. 59), in the treasury (viii. 20), in Solomon's porch (x. 23), before crossing the Cedron (xviii. 1), 5. The MANNER of the narrative impresses one that he is reading after an eye-witness. The countless small traits in the description evince the skill of an accurate observer and makes it more impressive. Take the record of any special scene and mark its several points, there will clearly appear the impressions of an eye-witness, as, for example, the calling of the first disciples (i. 35-57), or the foot washing (xiii. 1-20), or the scene in the high-priest's court (xviii. 15-27), or the draught of fishes (xxi. 1-14).

The Author was

It would appear from the previous considerations that it had been proved that the author of the Fourth Gospel was the Apostle John. But the evidence has not all been enu-

In the Synoptic narrative there are three disciples These were Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, James and John. The presumptive evidence is that one of these was the evangelist. St. Peter can not be the evangelist, because he was put to death long before the earliest date to which the Fourth Gospel has been assigned. Moreover its style is wholly unlike'the undoubted First Epistle of Peter. Of the two sons of Zebedee, James was martyred early (Acts xiii. 2) and long before Peter, so that he could not have been its author. Therefore, John alone remains, and he fully satisfies all the conditions required. 1. The narrative indicates a special Apostle as the writer. In the Epilogue the authorship is assigned to "the disciple whom Jesus loved" (xxi. 20 comp. v. 24). Under the same title this disciple appears twice in the narrative of the

Peter, thus reclining in the second place,

was not in a favorable position for listening to any whispers from the Lord, which might fall readily upon the ear of John. Then the person who occupied the third position would naturally act the part assigned to John. The nearness of St. John to the Lord is a relation of

Occasion.

The earliest authorities represent that the Gospel of St. John was written at the request of those who were intimate with the Apostle. Doubtless St, John had often delivered its contents to them orally and the elders desired that before his death it should be placed in permanent form, and thus be a perpetual guidance for the Church. The tradition in its simplest form has been preserved by Clement of Alexandria
;

on the authority of "the earliest presJohn, perceiving that the external fects had been made plain in the Gospel, being urged by his friends, and inspired by the Spirit, composed a Spiritual Gospel" (Eusebius' Ecd. Hist. B. VI. c. 14). With additional details this statement is given in the " Muratorian Fragment" (a. d. 170), which says, "The Fourth Gospel is that of John, one of the disciples. When his fellow-disciples and bishops, entreated him, he said, 'Fast ye now with me for the space of three days, and let us recount to each other what(a. d.

Hence, we have the external evidence of the circumstances under which St. John was induced to compose his Gospel. Besides the records already cited, others attempt to define this more cleaFh^ Irenseus supposes John to have written his Gospel as a polemic against Cerinthus (III. 11. 1.). In the Scholia, attributed to Victorinus of Pettau (a. d. 301) it is said that " he wrote the Gospel after the Apocalyse. For, when Valentinus and Cerinthus and Ebion and the others of the school of Satan were spread throughout the world, all the bishops from the neighboring provinces came together to him, and constrained him to commit his own testimony to writing' '(Ji<_^?, Patrol. Y. p. 333). This last statement appears to be only an amplification of the Asiatic tradition as preserved by Irenseus. As this view was widely disseminated it is more than probable that all point back to one account, which could not have been far removed from the time of the Apostle. It is safe to affirm that the Fourth Gospel was written after the

Synoptics, at the request of certain Christian Churches, and

The city was famed for its Temple of Diana, one of the seven wonders of the world. This marvellous building was despoiled of its treasures by Nero, burned by the Goths, and finally destroyed by the iconoclasts, in the reign of Theodosius I., who issued his celebrated edict against the ceremonies of the Pagan religion, a. d. 381. This city would especially be favorable for St. John in his work of extending the Christian Church.

''

The principal argument for the early date is derived from John V. 2, where the Apostle says, Now there is at Jerusalem, by the sheep-gate, a pool, which is called in the HebreAV
tongue Bethesda, having five porches." It has been urged that Jerusalem must have been standing when these words were written; and if written after the destruction, the words would have been, "Now there was at Jerusalem a pool," etc. This argument is quite superficial, for it presupposes that the pool of Bethesda was dried up or destroyed at the time of the overthrow of the ill-fated city. It is well-known that when Vespasian ordered the city to be demolished, he permitted some things to remain for the benefit of the garrison stationed there. It would be but natural that the wells and bathing places should be spared, for the soldiers would not purposely

be deprived of a grateful refreshment. The statement of the Evangelist looks no farther than the pool of Bethesda, and has no view of the state of Jerusalem. The argument deduced from the above passage, in favor of an earlier date, is more specious than forcible, and must be considered as inconclusive.

ing to a saying that went abroad among the brethren that John should not die. It was equivalent to saying, If I will that he escape martyrdom and die in peace, what is that to thee? The early persecution against the Christians was almost wholly instituted by the Jews and when their power was broken, by the'fearful calamity which befell them (Matt. xxiv.), the disciples had rest for several years.

These notes offer a remark33, xviii. 9, 32, xix. 36, xxi. 19). able contrast to those in which attention is called in the First Gospel to the present and inmiediate fulfilment of prophecy. One plain proof of this is found in the manner in which he records words which point to the spread of the Gospel beyond the limits of Judaism. This characteristic view is distinctly brought out in the interpretation Avhich he gives of the judgment of Caiaphas 'Now this he said not of himself,

was need of the long teaching of time, that his disciples might master the lessons which they had implicity received. " The record of these appeals to a future growth of knowledge can admit of only one interpretation. In dwelling on
such aspects of Christ's teaching, it is clear that the Evangelist is measuring the interval between the first imperfect views of the Apostles as to the kingdom of God, and that just ideal which he had been allowed to shape, under the teaching of the Paraclete, through disappointments and disasters. Xow at length, on the threshold of a new world, he can feel the divine force of much that was before hard and mysterious. He had waited till his Lord came and he was enabled to recognize His Presence, as once before by the lake of Galilee, in the unexpected victories of faith. " In the last quarter of the first century, the world relating to the Christian Church was a new world and St. John presents in his view of the Work and Person of Christ (1)

the problems ^vhicll were offered by the changed order. The overthrow of Jerusalem, carrying with it the destruction of the ancient service and the ancient people of God, the estab-

lishment of the Gentile congregations on the basis of St. Paul's interpretation of the Gospel, the rise of a Christian philosophy from the contact of the historic creed with Eastern and Western speculation, could not but lead one who had lived with Christ to go back once more to those days of a divine discipleship, that

There was no longer any need to dwell upon the outward aspects of teaching which had in this respect found its accomplishment.

we see from St. Paul's Epistles, were already organized, but the question could not but arise, how far this organization was fitted to realize the ideal of the kingdom

which Christ preached. The Evangelist meets the inquiry. He shows from the Lord's words what are the laws of his service, and how they are fulfiled by the institutions in which they were embodied. The absolute worship was to be in 'spirit and truth' (iv. 23), as distinguished from letter and shadow; and the discourses with Nicodemus and at Capernaum set forth by anticipation how the sacraments satisfy this

His 'hour' determines the occurrence of events from man's point of view; and the Evangelist refers to it in connection with each crisis of the Gospel history, and especially with the Passion in which all crises were consummated (ii. 4, vii. 30, viii. 20, xii. 23, 27, xiii. 1, xvi. 4, xvii. 1; comp. vii. 6-8).

"Faith again Uf^snmes a new aspect in the narrative of St. John. It is not merely the mediative energy in material deliverances, and the measure (so to speak) of material power; it is an energy of the whole nature, and active transference of the whole being into another life. Faith in a Person in One revealed under a new 'name' is the ground of sonship (i. 12), of life (xi. 25), of power (xiv. 12), of illumination (xii. 36, 46). The key-words of two complementary views of truth are fully combined This is the work of God, that ye believe' believe with a continuous ever-present faith 'on him whom he sent' (vi. 29; comp. viii. 30). Once again when the Fourth Gospel was written Christianity occupied a new intellectual position. In addition to social and doctrinal developments, there were also those still vaster questions which underlie all organization and all special dogma, as to the function and stability of knowledge,

Again, the eternal is revealed open in all its yjossible nobility.

The

shock of that momentous revolution was over, and Christians had been enabled to interpret it. There is no evidence to determine the date exactly.

As it has been affirmed that the doctrines of Cerinthus had an indirect influence in calling out the Fourth Gospel, it is proper here to note that he was a Jew by birth, and had studied philosophy and literature at Alexandria. He attempted to create a new and singular system of doctrine and discipline, by a monstrous combination of the doctrines of Jesus Christ with the opinions and errors of the Jews and Gnostics. From the latter he borrowed their ijleroma or fulness, their jEons or spirits, their Demiurgiis or creator of the visible world, and so modifled and tempered these fictions as to give them a semblance of Judaism, which considerably favored the progress of his teaching. lie affirmed that the most high

St. John adopts the same mode of expression which Moses em})loyed in the commencement of liis history: "In the beginning" (Gen. i. 1). This coincidence was hardly accidentaL Like Moses, he was about to speak of the creation of the world, and of the Divine Energy by which it was accomplished. The world was created by the direct Energy of God himself; and that Energy was subsequently manifested " The Word was with God," or in the Lord Jesus Christ. God's Energy had never been wanting; for it had always been present to him, as an inseparable attribute. So absolutely was this Energy identified with himself that it might appropriately be called God. Thus does the Apostle, in the strongest possible manner, affirm tliat the creation (i. 3) was accomplished by the Supreme God, not by a personal emanation from himself, but by his own indwelling Energy. The Energy which had always existed, which was with God and in God, had been with God from the beginning {v. 2.) It had never been separated from him, nor united to him anew. " In him was life and the life was the light of men " (y. 4). This revelation made by the Energy of God through Christ, which

The second chapter opens with a sign, of which the symbolism is reflected in the w^ords, " Mine hour is not yet come" {v. 4), which seem to look forward to the hour when the "blood of the grape" should stream from the wounded side of Jesus. The water turned into wine may be said to typify the substitution of grace for the law. This was the first miracle of the Lord, of which we have any account and it is

He never exerted the divine power for the injury of any man; but uniformly exhibited in his works, the same benevolence which his words expressed. The prediction he made (ii. 4) in Cana, was soon after followed by a similar prophecy for not long after he went to Jerusalem to attend the Passover, and there he purified the Temple. Being asked of the Jews for a sign, he replied, "Destroy this temple, and in three* days I will raise it up" (ii. 19). It is explained that he " spoke of the temple of his body [v. 21).

The idea of Light implies darkness, and the development of the doctrine of Light naturally belongs to the period of the conflict between the Word and the leaders of the Jews. The violent spirit manifested after the cure of the impotent man (v. 16, 18) breaks out again, and the Pharisees make a direct attempt to arrest Jesus (vii. 32), which is frustrated by the wonder of his words (vii. 46), and leads him to predict that he will soon pass away from them, and finally concludes by exclaiming in the last day of the feast " He that believeth in me, as the

These latter words furnish a suitable ending to Jesus' discourses on light, bringing prominently forward that " reproving " power of light which is one of the special attributes of that Holy Spirit which the Fourth Gospel, step by step, continually leads to.

Jesus surely did not refer to Moses and nor John the Baptist, either collectively the prophets, or singly. "Salvation is of the Jews" (iv. 22); "they are they which testify of me" (v. 89); "if ye believed Moses, ye would believe me" (v. 46); "John bare witness unto the

Nor is it probable that he referred to persons who had previously pretended to be the Messiah, for there is no evidence that any false Christ appeared before the true one, though such imposters afterwards sought to deceive the people. It is probable that he referred to the scribes and Pharisees, who pretended to be religious and spiritual guides; the same whom he elsew^here styles

charged him with blasphemy, because, " being a man, makest thyself God " {v. 33). It has been boldly asserted that Jesus teaches {v. 30) that he and the Father are but " one substance," and if this be not true, then Jesus should have corrected the mistake of the Jews as implied in the declaration that thou "makest thyself God" {v. 33); and furtlier the

that his disciples "maybe one" (xvii. 11) in "Substance," for the word " One " is here also in the neuter in the Greek.

The only consistent construction is that the Father and Son were united in desire and purpose in regard to the great work in which Jesus was engaged. It is possible, and even probable, that the Jews understood that Christ made himself God but however that may be, it was immediately pointed out to them the impropriety of such an interpretation of the language used, inasmuch as they themselves were accustomed to even stronger expressions of a similar kind, which they did not account blasphemous, or indicative of equality with God.

The magistrates or judges, as was Moses, were on account of their dignity and authority (Ex. iv.

16, vii. 1; xxii. 28; Ps. Ixxxii. 1, 6, cxxxviii. 1). The point could readily be appreciated by a Jewish audience. It was such an answer that only one thoroughly conversant with Jewish thought could have dreamed of using. When carefully con-

sidered the verses under discussion are sufficient to discredit the theory that this Gospel is the work of a Greek Gnostic
of the second century.

The narrative continues by an account of the raising of Lazarus, the last of the pre-resurrection " signs " of Jesus. This was the culminating point of the miraculous acting of our Lord, and its significance important. The act is far deeper and greater than the revivification of the brother of

Before describing how the Savior laid down his life, the author gives the best possible proof of the spontaneousness of the action by showiflg that he was the source of life to others. As a preparation for his resurrection on the third day what better action than that he should raise from the dead one who had been four days lying in the grave ? Moreover, if a preparation was needed for the doctrine of the Spirit, which is soon to come before us, then the resurIt is in rection of Lazarus would also serve this purpose. keeping with the doctrine of the Light of the world which was preceded by the miracle of giving light to the blind.

VII. Important Features.

The composition of the Fourth Gospel brings out many important features which should here receive attention, and may bo thus noted Christianity not only claims a. The Truth and the Witness. " to be "the Truth," but Christ declares himself as "the Truth The message of the Gospel is " the Truth." This (xiv. 6). title is not found in the Synoptics, the Acts or the Apocalypse, but occurs in the Catholic Epistles (James v. 19, 1 Peter i.-22, 2 Peter ii. 2) and in the Epistles of St. Paul (2 Thess. ii. 12, 2 Cor. xiii. 8, Eph. i. 13, etc.). It is especially characteristic of

"
; ;

Truth came through him " (i. 17) liis teaching was "the Truth" (viii. 40) he is himself " the Truth " (xW. 6). This work is carried on by the Spirit (xvi. 13) which is sent by the Father (xiv. 26). Under this aspect the Spirit, like Christ, is the Truth which he makes known (1 Jno. v. 6). The Spirit, as the Spirit of Truth, brings " the Truth " into direct communication with man's spirit (xiv. 17, xv. 26, xvi. 13), and " the Truth " becomes an inward power in the believer The reception of the Truth brings freedom (1 Jno. i. 8). (viii. 32), because Truth is related to the laws of our being. Ey the Truth we are sanctified (xvii. 17). It would then appear to be a direct argument that the apostolic conceptions of Christianitv, or the divine truth, are in nowise antagonistic to the highest responsive chord of the human soul. Truth is the light and the human aspirations are to be kept in unison with it. The message conveyed by St. John in his Gospel is '' the Truth " which, by various forms of witness, is commended to men. The witnesses to Christ are manifold, and in due suc-

His position was unique. He " came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe" (i. 7). His witness was such as to attract and arrest (v. 35), and served to prepare the way for that which should follow. The witness was an accommodation to the moral condition of those who came under his influence. It was the attestation of a personal " Ye sent unto John, conviction based upon specific proof. and he bare witness unto the truth"(i'. 33). The Baptist recognized his own character and mission (i. 23), and by the sign {v. 32) made known unto him understood who was the Christ. He lived in the severest form of Judaism, but knew the universality of that in which Judaism should be crowned. 6. The witness of the disciples was in various degrees that of intercourse with Christ, and consequently a testimony to facts. "Ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning " (xv. 27). He that saw it bare record "(xix. 35).

The glory of the Son was not of his own seeking (viii. 50), but wholly the expression of the Father's will {v. 54). And Christ, by conforming to the will of the Father, glorifled the Father upon earth (xvii. 4), wherein he was also glorified himself {v. 10). The glory of Christ, in a true sense, was also the glorj^ of God. "This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of

St.

John frequently

points out a sequence in fact or in

thought, although he connects his sentences so simply, and sometimes merely places them side by side without conjunctions.

His two most characteristic particles are '' therefore" and "in order that.*' The Greek word (o5v) translated " therefore " occurs two hundred and two times and in the Authorized version is translated "therefore" sixty-four times, and as thus used is found almost exclusively in narrative, and points out that one fact is a consequence of another, sometimes in cases where this would not have been obvious;
"Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee" (iv. 46), because of the reception he had previously received there. The frequent use of "therefore" points to the conviction that nothing hap-

pens without a cause, consequently the frequent use of "in order that" points to the belief that nothing happens without a purpose.

It should be observed that the expression " abide in,"

Moreover, its figurative use is not entirely peculiar to St. John, for there are four passages in St. Paul's writings, i. e., 1 Cor. vii, 20, 24, abide in the calling 1 Tim. ii. 15, if they continue (abide) in faith, charity and holiness; 2 Tim. iii. 14, abide in the things which thou hast learned which are analogous to some, though not to all of the above expressions.

These considerations are supplemented by the fact that most of the discourses recorded in this Gospel were spoken in Aramaic. A large and miscellaneous crowd had gathered at Jerusalem, and all were able to understand what was spoken to them "in the Hebrew tongue" (Acts xxi. 40), and by it the favor of the multitude was conciliated. St. Peter must have spoken in an Aramaic dialect in the court of the high priest, and the bystanders not only understood him but noticed his provincialism (Matt. xxvi. 73). In Acts (i. 19) it is said that Aramaic was the proper language of " the dwellers The title, Rabboni (Jno. xx. 16), with which in Jerusalem." Mary addressed the risen Lord was " Hebrew," These indications lead to the conclusion that in intercourse with the inner

necessary condition for a divine revelation (xiv, 17, 22). Afterwards it is foretold that the hatred of the world is natural (xv. 18) and then the hatred is followed out to its consequences (xvi. 1). On the other hand it is promised that the Spirit shall convict the world; and further, Christ declares

{vs.

These examples demonstrate the existence of a real coherence and development of thought in the discourses; although it is difficult to follow the same in detail. A brief outline of the general course which the addresses take, may be useful, in addition to the analysis of the Gospel, previously given, under another section. These discourses form two groups, the discourses in the chamber (xiii. 31, xiv.) and on the w^ay (xv., xvi). The principal thoughts of the iirst are those of separation from Christ in the second, of realized union with Christ, and of victory after conflict.

indirectly considered or else important features pointed out in the sections already treated. However, the subject is of such

importance as to demand special attention, even at the risk of repetition. There are special leading points which are distinctive features of the Gospel.

I.

Spiritual Gospel.

From the time of Clement of Alexandria (a. d, 190) this Gospel has been distinguished as a " Spiritual Gospel " (Eusebius B. VI. c. xiv. 7), because it presents glimpses of the inner

John's Gospel continually breathes In harmony with this characteristic it is natural that it should contain a much larger portion of Christ's words than may be found in the Synoptics. His discourses form the principal part, especially the latter half of the Gospel. The discourses recorded by St. John give more of the spirit of Christ than can be obtained from the

Sermon on the Mount.

them feel that this spiritual value is the attribute of all life. The Evangelist has recorded in detail eight miracles wrought by Christ which are as follows The water turned to wine (ii. 1-11).

The first two are introductory, and as such seem to be pointed out by St. John. They are given without any comment save the record of their effects. There are two brief notes (ii. 11, iv. 53) which give the clue to the interpretation of the " sio^ns."

From them it may be learned that Christ's presence hallows the commonest events and turns any element into the richest; also the way to win blessings is to trust the One who bestows them. The third sign, healing the paralytic, sliows the Messiah as the great Restorer,

In JSTicodemus coming by night, in Judas going out into the night, in the dividing of Christ's garments, and the blood and water from his side, we find instances of the same love of symbolism. As to the source of this mode of teaching, there can be no doubt about the answer: it is the form in

The Gospel sets forth in tragic contrast that the Jewish Scriptures in endless ways, by commands, types, and prophecies, pointed and led to Christ and that precisely the people who possessed these Scriptures, and studied them most diligently, failed to recognize the Christ or refused to believe on him. In this aspect the Gospel is a long comment on the mournful text, " Ye search the Scriptures because in them ye think ye. have And ye eternal life and they are they which testify of me. will not come to me, that ye may have life " (v. 39, 40). Therefore to show the way out of their superstitious reverence for the letter of the law and a scornful rejection of its true meaning this Gospel is given. To his fellow-countrymen

There came a time when there was a decisive division among the followers of Christ, which occurred in Galilee. The " multitude," governed by its own ideas, desired to precipitate matters
(vi. 14).

In order to thwart this attempt

Christ presented the most startling imagery from things out-

ward, and foreshadowed his own violent death. His discourse drove many from him (vi. 60), but brought out a more complete confession from the twelve (r. 69). The issue was more slowly brought out at Jerusalem, where divisions were created among the multitude (vii. 30Some thought Jesus was the Christ from his works (v. 43). 31), and from his teachings {vs. 26, 37, 46), and even questioned whether or not their leaders had reached the same conclusion {v. 26). But l:o them he did not satisfy the prophetic tests which they applied to the Messiah (vs. 27, 42, 52). In the midst of this uncertainty the rulers openly declared themselves (vs. 32-48) and under their influence the masses fell away when Christ set aside their pecuhar claims and purposes

No reason now existed why Christ should shrink from receiving the homage of the believers. Openly he accepted the title of King when he entered the Holy City to die there (xiii. 13) and the public ministry now closed with the questioning of the people as " to the Son of man " {v. 34).

The Fourth Gospel and the

Synoptics.

Every one who has carefully read the four Gospels must have been impressed that there is a general difference between the Fourth and the Synoptics that reaches throughout their whole composition. There is an impression that the two convey a difference in the duiation, the scene, the form, and the substance of Christ's teachings, and also in regard to the circumstances under which they were composed. The latter

So far as the purpose of the Fourth Gospel is concerned, but taken as an external history it forms a complete whole It is not a Biography, but it is obviously very incomplete. decidedly a Gospel, based upon facts which have a permanent bearing upon the salvation of the world. Its fragmentary character is seen in the notice of periods of teaching of undefined length, narrating no more than the occurrence: "After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized (iii. 22), making and baptizing more disciples than John " (iv.

These words have force only on the supposition that there was an earlier ministry in Judea which is deliberately passed over (comp. Jno. ii., iii.).

It is improbable that their " righteousness" would have been denounced (Matt. V. 20) unless the Lord had met and proved them in the seat of their power.

to

assume that there is no difeculty in that there is much of the Fourth Gospel having no parallel in the other three. Regarding the uncertainty of the date and duration of the Lord's public ministry there exists no contradiction. In the Synoptics it is nowhere recorded that the ministry lasted
only for one year. The three Passovers of St. John compel the admission of over two years to the ministry of Christ. But nowhere does St. John declare or imply that he has

mentioned all the Passovers within the period. That the four Gospels do not limit the ministry to a definite period is not only evident from their own testimony, but also from the impressions of the early Christian

Although the Holy Spirit should bring to his remembrance all that had been said to the disciples (xiv. 26), yet such guidance would work with, rather than against, the mental endowments of the person operated upon. The intensity of St. John, both in thought and language, both in devotion and sternness, is in the Gospel. The circumstances under which he wrote were very different from that governing the Synoptists. Christianity had rapidly grown from infancy to manhood. Bold speculations had been mingled with Christianity, and efforts had been made to subvert the true faith. Between the Jew and the Christian the great gulf had

very different from those which had suited the infancy of the Church. The reverent mind will trace the hand of Providence in that the " beloved disciple," the Apostle John, was

In the Gospel the "coming" of the Lord (xxi. 22) and " of the last day" (vi. 40,44) and of a judgment (v. 24-29) are touched upon generally in order to preserve the force of the teachings; while in the Epistle "the manifestation of Christ" (ii. 28) and his " presence " stand out as clear facts of history.

There are but two instances in the other books of the l^ew Testament in which Christ is represented by the word Lamb (Acts viii. 32, 1 Peter Turning from this point, we find that the Revelator i, 19). represents the Church as the Bride and Jesus as the Bridegroom. "And I John saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband " (xxi. 2); " Come hither, I will show thee the bride adorned for her husband" (y. 9. See also xxii. 17). This metaphor occurs in no other place in the New Testament except in the Gospel of John. It came originally from the Baptist " Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said,

Here unquestionably, Christ' was the bridegroom and the Baptist was the bridegroom's friend, who rejoiced to hear his voice. John is the only one of the Evangelists who recorded this, and it has a direct tendency to fortify the one authorship of the two writings. Among the most beautiful metaphors of the Apocalj^pse is that of icate7\ used to represent truth and its infiaences. The following description of the felicity of the redeemed is both beautiful and striking: "For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters; and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes" (vii. 17). Again: "And the Spirit and the bride say. Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And And whosoever will, let him let him that is athirst come. of life freely" (xxii. 17). This same doctrine take the water is strikingly represented in the Gospel of St. John by "living water," of which if the thirsty drank, they should thirst no more (iv. 10-14. See also vii. 37, 38). John is the only one of the New Testament writers who has given the metaphor

mentioned in no part of the New Testament except in St. John's Gospel and the Apocalypse (see John's Gospel, vi. 31, 49, 58, Rev. ii. 17). St. John is the only ISTew Testament writer who has preserved the metaphor /oo^ as a figure of the Gospel. "He gave them bread out of heaven to eat" (John vi. 32); " The bread of God is that which cometh down out of heaven" (v. 33); "I am the living bread" {v. 51).

most prominence to the metaphor of blood to represent the cleansing power of divine truth. In this sense there is scarcely any mention of blood by any other writer. It is the purifying power of the truth to which John refers when he
says

" Have washed their Tobes, and made them blood 9)
"
:

in one " (1 Jno. v. 8)

With one exception (Matt, v, 6) St. John is the only evangelist who uses hunrjer and thirst as metaphors to represent the need which the human soul hath for the truth of Christ. " Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst" (John vi. 35). To this agrees the metaphor in the Apocalypse " They shall hunger no more, There may be many other neither thirst any more " (vii. 16).

strong points omitted, but these will amply illustrate the striking peculiarities of the two. Comparisons in points of doctrine

have been purposely omitted, because the books of the New Testament essentially agree with each other in this respect. However a comparison of the manner in which the doctrine oi judgment is stated in the Apocalypse, with the manner in which it is stated in the Gospel of St. John, will confirm the opinion that the Apocalypse and the Gospel were the product of one hand.

Contrasts of the Apocalypse toiih the Gospel.

HISTORY OF THE FOURTH GOSPEL.

The Revised Version of the Bible of a. d. 1884, owing to some of the startling changes in the text, has aroused much attention relating to the history of the documents which

From the foregoing summary it will be seen that each of the editors took up more or less a different line. Lachmann was the first to cast aside wholly the received text, and Wordsworth has taken it up again. Though the editors had each his own plan, in some places, all came to one conclusion, pointing out that the common Greek text ought to be abandoned for the one they give.

II.

The Interlinear Translation.

In the plan adopted the Greek words have invariably been kept in their right order, and where the interlinear English would not make sense in the same order, the words have been numbered to show how they must read. To prevent this numbering, and transposition, being increased unnecessarily, a few words are often made into a phrase. This has been done at the commencement of each sentence, where needed, two or more words being joined with a low hyphen. Where a Greek word occurs which the English idiom requires should vot be translated, the word stands alone with no EnIn some places, on account of the double glish under it. negative used in the Greek, a double translation is given, where they do not immediately follow one another.
