New Testament apostle. Traditionally, he wrote the fourth Gospel and the Johannine Epistles (when he was bishop of Ephesus), and the Book of Revelation (while exiled to the Greek island of Patmos). His emblem is an eagle; his feast day is 27 December.
The differences between the fourth Gospel and the Synoptic Gospels (the similar accounts of Jesus' life by Matthew, Mark, and Luke) are a cause of theological debate.
