"The Disciple Jesus Loved": Witness, Author, Apostle
A Response to Richard Bauckham's Jesus and the Eyewitnesses
Andreas J. Köstenberger and Stephen O. Stout
Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary
Dr. Steven O. Stout co-authored this article in the
Bulletin for Biblical Research
18.2 (2008) 209–231. Synopsis:
Richard Bauckham’s Jesus and the Eyewitnesses: The Gospels as
Eyewitness Testimony (Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 2006) makes a persuasive
argument that the Gospels display eyewitness testimony and thus renews the
quest for the identity of the Beloved Disciple as the author of the Fourth
Gospel. While Bauckham attributes this Gospel to “the presbyter John”
mentioned by Papias, the authors of this study show that the patristic
evidence more likely seems to support the authorship of John the apostle and
that the literary device of inclusio in the Fourth Gospel, astutely observed
by Bauckham, also favors the authorship of Johnthe son of Zebedee.
