Modern commentaries and scholars often discount the authorship of the Fourth Gospel completely as if no good evidence exists for the Apostle John, son of Zebedee, its traditional author. One prominent scholar even suggested that the Apostle John was illiterate. He cited Acts 4:13 as evidence for his argument. This short piece examines this an other authorship claims. For at least 1,700 years, the vast majority of churches around the world have held to traditional authorship. While modern scholarship has all but abandoned even the idea of John, son of Zebedee, as the Fourth Gospel's author, Christians for 1,700 years were not void of evidence, by which they backed their claims/assumptions. Can a true scholar hold to traditional authorship while remaining academic? Today, a need exists to revisit the facts of the traditional authorship of the Fourth Gospel. Kelly Seely examines a variety of internal and external evidence seeking to answer this question.
