He didn't write it It was written after his death.

Answer:The New Testament doesn't provide the ages of any of the apostles at any point, so the answer to your question is unknowable from scripture.

John was in exile on the island of Patmos when he wrote the Book of Revelation. He was isolated and imprisoned for his Christian beliefs, which inspired the apocalyptic visions recorded in the book.

How did John the author of the book of Revelation in the Holy Bible die?

Answer John was the only Apostle to die a natural death. He was exiled on the Isle of Patmos while writing the Revelation, and was later released at which time he wrote his three epistles. Historical documents indicate that John lived well into his 90's - thus living through the death of all the apostles, including Paul. Cessationists believe that the death of John ended the continuing revelation of Christ to His church.FYI:The day commemorates the martyrdom by beheading of Saint John the Baptist on the orders of Herod Antipas through the vengeful request of his step-daughter Salome and her mother
