The Book of Revelation was signed by a person called John, so Paul could not have written it. The book was at one stage attributed to the apostle John, because of the coincidence of name, and in fact was accepted into the New Testament solely because of that attribution. Modern scholars say that the author could not have been the apostle John and simply call the book's author 'John of Patmos'.

Where did Paul write the book of Revelation?

The apostle Paul did not write the book of the Revelation.The apostle John, one of the original 12 disciples, wrote this book while exiled on the Isle of Patmos.AnswerThe island of Patmos is very close to the church of Ephesus which John pastored and to which he delivered Revelation after he wrote it. CLARIFICATION: there is no evidence that the apostle John wrote the Gospel of John. In fact there is plenty of evidence that ALL four Gospels of the Bible, Mathew, Mark, Luke and John were written by people not connected with the original 12 and who had never met Jesus.


What is the correct grammar - Apostle Paul or apostle Paul?

OpinionI would say Apostle Paul wherever I use 'Apostle' as a title, in the same way as I would say Mr Smith, with 'Mr' capitalised. Less frequently, I would write 'apostle' uncapitalised if I did not intend it as a title, for example where 'apostle' is the subject of the sentence, and Paul is addressed. Use capitals to be on the safe side.

The Apostle is the only John that fits the comments made about himself within the text, he was known to be the author from the earliest times, and the vocabulary and context fit with the other books known to be written by the Apostle John.
