Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Annotations on the Gospel of St. John: Critical, Philological and Explanatory St. John, the Apostle and Evangelist, was a Galilean, son of Zebedee and Salome, and brother of James the Great. His father is supposed by some to have died soon after the commencement of our Saviour´s ministry; and to have been the person referred to in Luke ix. 59. Be this as it may, it is evident that Salome was the more prominent character. It was she who presented on behalf of her sons the well known petition to be seated "on his right hand, and on his left;" (Matt. xx. 20) she is particularly mentioned as having, when Jesus was in Galilee, "followed him, and ministered unto him;" (Mark xv. 41.) and she was one of the three who "bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint" the Saviour´s body, (Mark xvi. I.) St. John, though the son of a fisherman, and himself engaged in the same occupation, was not of the poorest class. We read of his father´s "hired servants;" (Mark i. 20.) and that he himself was "known unto the high-priest:" (John xviii. 15.) for there seems little reason to doubt that it is of himself he speaks in this passage. We may conclude, therefore, from his condition in life, that he was familiar with the Old Testament Scriptures.
