The Other Disciple

[JB_Brother_4446]

“supposedly”??

D-R Bible, Haydock Commentary:

Ver. 23. This saying, therefore:[4] that is, a report went about among the disciples, that John was not to die. But St. John himself, as St. Augustine and St. Chrysostom observe, took care to tell us, that Christ said not so. Nor do we find any sufficient grounds to think that St. John is not dead. (Witham)

But all He said was,“If he is to remain until I come, what is that to you?”

 

[thistle]

But all He said was,“If he is to remain until I come, what is that to you?”

So how does that mean he was not to die (according to you)?

I didn’t say this follower was not to die. I just said Jesus’ was suppoesed to have told Peter he was not to die.

You keep using the word “supposedly”. Why are you speculating? “Supposedly” means you have no clue.

I’m speculating the notion that He even said John wouldn’t die.

This is a waste of time. I’m leaving this meaningless thread.
