John
John’s Gospel (c.90–100 CE) is more theological than the Synoptics. It emphasizes Jesus’ divine identity (the Logos made flesh) and focuses on signs that reveal His glory and the promise of eternal life to believers.
Author: Traditionally John the Apostle (the 'Beloved Disciple').
Date Written: Circa 90–100 CE.
Context: Distinct from the Synoptics, John was written later, possibly in Ephesus. It addresses emerging Christian theology (e.g., the incarnation) and aims at strengthening believers’ faith in Jesus as the Son of God.
