The writer of Revelation calls himself John.
He also declares that he is on the island of Patmos. Several of the early church father said John the apostle had been banished to othe island by the Roman Emperor Domitian
Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, Tertullian, Hippolytus, Clement of Alexandria, and Origen, all credit the book to John.
More recently a book called the Apocryphon of John (about a.d. 150), was found in Egypt that specifically attributes Revelation to John the brother of James.

∙ 8y agoThere is no certainty as to who wrote the Book of Revelation. It is signed by "John, the servant of God", but we do not know who this John was.
- Some say he was John the disciple of Jesus.
- Some say John was also the author of the Gospel according to St John.
However, this gospel was written anonymously and we do not really know that author's name, so there is no reason to believe he was called John. In any event, the style and theology of Revelation and of John's Gospel are quite different. - Scholars say we do not know who the author of Revelationwas, and simply attribute the book to an otherwise unknown John of Patmos.
