John the Baptist was described by Jesus as the greatest man before Jesus:

"Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he." (Matthew 11.11)

John the apostle and James his brother were called "The sons of thunder" by Jesus (Mark 3.17), but John described himself as five time in his gospel as 'the disciple whom Jesus loved' (John 13.23; 19.26; 20.2; 21.7; 21.20)
