John 21:22-24

John 20 Acts 1

John 21:22-24 The Passion Translation (TPT)

²²Jesus replied, “If I decide to let him live until I return, what concern is that of yours? You must still keep on following me!”

²³So the rumor started to circulate among the believers that this disciple wasn’t going to die. But Jesus never said that, he only said, “If I let him live until I return, what concern is that of yours?”

Conclusion

²⁴I, John,^[a] am that disciple who has written these things to testify of the truth, and we^[b] know that what I’ve documented is accurate.

Footnotes:

John 21:24 The evidence both internally and externally clearly points to John as the author of this book, thus the explicit reference here.
John 21:24 The word we implies that John had conferred with the other disciples, as he has left us an accurate account of the life of Jesus Christ.
