Although many fanciful traditions about the deaths of the apostles grew up over the centuries, we do not really know how any of them died, but tradition says that the apostle John died of natural causes as an old man. However, we do not really know how John died.
It is traditionally believed that John survived his contemporary apostles and lived to an extreme old age, dying naturally at Ephesus in about AD 100. An alternative account of John's death, ascribed by later Christian writers to the early second-century bishop Papias of Hierapolis, claims that he was slain by the Jews. Most Johannine scholars doubt the reliability of its ascription to Papias, but a minority, including B.W. Bacon, Martin Hengel and Henry Barclay Swete, maintain that these references to Papias are credible. John's traditional tomb is thought to be located at Selçuk, a small town in the vicinity of Ephesus.
