There are many traditions about the authorship of Revelation which, since it is signed by a person called John, is usually attributed to the apostle John. However, scholars say that the author of the Book of Revelation was certainly not the author of the Gospel According to St John. We can not say with certainty where the book was written, and in fact it appears to have been written in layers, by at least two different authors separated in time, neither of whom wrote about where he lived.

No where does the Bible say that John ever went to the island of Patmos. In fact there is not even any extra-biblical evidence that he did. The Book of Revelation is signed by a person called John, and was written from Patmos. In the second century, it was decided that this was the same John as was believed to have written John's Gospel. Traditions grew up around persecutions and fabulous miracle that happened to John on his way to the island of Patmos, but they are not based on the Bible nor on any verifiable facts.
Where did St john write Revelations?
In th everse below John states why he wrote 'John': Joh 20:31 but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name. John is instructed to write the things recorded in Revelation: Rev 1:19 Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will take place after this.
Was the book of revelations wrote while john was at island patmos?
A:Simply because the Book of Revelation was signed by a person called John, it was decided late in the second century that this must have been the apostle John. Whoever this John was, it clearly was not the author of John's Gospel, as the style and the theology are too different. Nevertheless, after the decision to attribute Revelation to the apostle John, a tradition evolved that the apostle John was exiled to Patmos because he miraculously survived all attempts to kill him. It is never explained how it was possible to exile John anywhere, if his enemies were unable to harm him. There is no evidence that the apostle John was ever on the island of Patmos. Revelation 1:1 states that the Book of Revelation was written by a person called John, and Revelation 1:9 says that he wrote from Patmos, without at any stage saying that he had been exiled to the island. So unless there is proof that he was forcibly restrained, it should be assumed that John of Patmos could leave the island whenever he chose, and return at any time he chose.
