"Continental scholars have [...] abandoned the idea that this gospel was written by the apostle John, whereas in Great Britain and America scholarship has been much more open to the idea." Abandonment is due to changing opinion rather "than to any new evidence." "Werner, Colson, and I have been joined, among others, by I. Howard Marshall and J.A.T. Robinson in seeing the evidence as pointing to John the son of Zebedee as the author of this Gospel." The view that John's history is substandard "is becoming increasingly hard to sustain. Many recent writers have shown that there is good reason for regarding this or that story in John as authentic. [...] It is difficult to [...] regard John as having little concern for history. The fact is John is concerned with historical information. [...] John apparently records this kind of information because he believes it to be accurate. [...] He has some reliable information and has recorded it carefully. [...] The evidence is that where he can be tested John proves to be remarkably accurate."
    • Bruce 1981 pp. 52–4, 58. "The evidence [...] favor[s] the apostolicity of the gospel. [...] John knew the other gospels and [...] supplements them. [...] The synoptic narrative becomes more intelligible if we follow John." John's style is different so Jesus' "abiding truth might be presented to men and women who were quite unfamiliar with the original setting. [...] He does not yield to any temptation to restate Christianity. [...] It is the story of events that happened in history.
