Jean le Bien-Aimé
Additional info: Beloved disciple is a term in John's Gospel for a disciple for whom Jesus had deep feelings; variously identified as Lazarus, an anonymous source or author of the Gospel, an idealized disciple, or John's reference to himself without using his own name. Church tradition and interpretation of biblical evidence appear to point to John.
The apostle called the beloved disciple by Jesus was the disciple John, who was the youngest of all the disciples. And also died last , as ,many were killed. before theoir time John sat with Jesus on the table next to Jesus.
John, the beloved disciple cared for her as his own mother
No. Jesus spoke to her and the beloved disciple John.
The disciple traditionally believed to have died of natural causes is John. He is said to have lived to an old age and died peacefully, contrasting with the deaths of other disciples who were martyred.
Matthew was known as Levi. Mark was known as John Mark. Luke was called The Physician. And John was the Beloved Disciple.
John the Apostle and beloved disciple. See Revelation 1:1,4 and 9.
The "disciple whom Jesus loved" is only mentioned in John's Gospel, and there is no real proof that this disciple was really John. The Church Fathers late in the second century examined the text and declared that the "disciple whom Jesus loved" was John.
We do not really know when any of Jesus' disciples died. Some believe that John was the last to die, based on the assumption that he was the author of the Gospel in his name. Others say that perhaps the "disciple whom Jesus loved" was the last to die, becaue John's Gospel says of him, "He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee?" However, some scholars, quoted by Raymond E Brown, believe that the Beloved Disciple was purely symbolic, representing the perfect disciple. There is a view among some Christians that John and the Beloved Disciple were the same person.
The "disciple whom Jesus loved" is mentioned several times in John's Gospel, but no information is provided as to who this disciple was meant to be. During the late second century, the Church Fathers noticed that he was never mentioned in the same context as the disciple John and, on that slender ground, it was decided that this disciple must be John.
John the beloved. He did not have a recorded demise. All the other apostles met with violent and unpleasant deaths
A:The 'disciple whom Jesus loved' appears only in the Gospel of John, and only in comparisons made with the apostle Peter. A first possibility is that the beloved disciple was a literary device used by the author to demonstrate that Peter was not the greatest of all disciples, perhaps in order to minimise what he believed to be the excessive veneration of Peter. Whenever the beloved disciple and Peter are placed in a position to be compared, the unknown disciple is always more worthy than Peter. The second-century Church Fathers were convinced that the 'disciple whom Jesus loved' was indeed a real person, and set out to establish who he could have been. They noticed that John, an important disciple in the synoptic gospels, was never mentioned in this Gospel. By a process of elimination, they had arrived at the conclusion that the beloved disciple was John, son of Zebedee. They then decided that the hitherto anonymous gospel must have been written by this disciple, John, who was too modest to use his own name in the gospel.There is no evidence that the view of the Church Fathers was correct, and modern scholars say that the Gospel could not have been written by an eyewitness to the events portrayed.
