Matthew and John (as two of Jesus' twelve disciples) were with Him when He was betrayed, making their gospels eyewitness accounts. (Matthew 26, John 18)

Mark, though not one of the twelve, may also have been an eyewitness to the event. His gospel is the only one that makes mention of "a certain young man," in Mark 14:51, 52.

Since Mark alone records this occurrence, some surmise that the young man was Mark himself. If so, he too would have been an eyewitness.

How do we know John was an eyewitness to the arrest and crucifixion of Jesus?

A:The gospels tell us that the apostle John was at the arrest of Jesus, but there is actually no way to know whether he was an eyewitness to the crucifixion of Jesus. Certainly, if we knew that the 'disciple whom Jesus loved', found only in John's Gospel, had actually been the apostle John, we could then say that this gospel tells us that John was at the foot of the cross and therefore an eyewitness to the crucifixion. However, the association of the beloved disciple with John was only made late in the second century, and only on a speculative basis. Moreover, there is another problem, no matter who the beloved disciple was. The synoptic gospels make it quite clear that Mary, mother of Jesus, and those of his acquaintance watched from afar off, but John's Gospel says that Mary and the beloved disciple were at the foot of the cross and that Jesus charged the disciple with looking after Mary like his own mother. Both accounts could not be true, and it seems likely that John's account was an elaboration of the earlier accounts.
