∙ 8y agoThe 'beloved disciple' appears several times in John's Gospel as a counterpoint to the apostle Peter. Whenever the two disciples appear together, the beloved disciple always manages to better Peter. Second-century Church Fathers noticed that the disciple John was not mentioned in this gospel and so decided that the unknown disciple must be John. Up to that point, the fourth gospel was anonymous, and the Church Fathers took the next step of assigning it to John on the dubious assumption that he had not used his own name in the Gospel out of modesty.
Apart from the second-century hypothesis, we do not know who the beloved disciple was.
