      one of the two: These two disciples were mentioned at Joh 1:35. The unnamed disciple is likely the apostle John, who is the son of Zebedee and the writer of this Gospel. (Mt 4:21; Mr 1:19; Lu 5:10) This conclusion is supported by the fact that the writer never identifies himself by name, never mentions the apostle John by name, and always refers to John the Baptist simply as “John.”
