AUTHORSHIP clxxiii The Apocalypse is now ascribed to the Elder by perhaps a majority of critics. But recent criticism goes further, and transfers to the Elder nearly all that has been hitherto given to the Apostle. There were two Johns in the Apostolic age, but only one of them was a resident in Asia, and he was the Elder and not the son of Zebedee. It was the Elder and not the Apostle who was the disciple that Jesus loved, who gave his name to the Johannine books of the New Testament, and claims to be the writer of the Apocalypse. At this point it will be convenient to collect the traditions whichrelate to the residence of John in Asia and his exile to Patmos.(i) Residence in Asia. Iren. ii. 22. 5 (ap.
