John 21:24 has an ending phrase that is oddly almost a verbatim copy of 3 John 12
Line 58: Line 58:  
Much of John 21 overlaps with material in the [[synoptic Gospels]], such as the [[miraculous catch of fish]].  But the [[Gospel of John]] is a unique work having very little genuine overlap with other [[Gospels]]: "The Gospel of Luke contains 59 percent unique material and shares 41 percent with other Gospels. On the other hand, the Gospel of John has 92 percent unique material and shares only 8 percent of material with the other Gospels."<ref>https://rsc.byu.edu/new-testament-history-culture-society/synoptic-gospels#:~:text=The%20Gospel%20of%20Luke%20contains,material%20with%20the%20other%20Gospels.</ref>

Virtually everyone agrees that the [[Mark ending]] was a later addition, so it is proper to ask if the rehashed, duplicative content comprising John chapter 21 after the clear ending above, was likewise a later addition to the [[Gospel of John]].
