I am trying to determine what arguments are used to date the Gospel of John post 70 AD. I have used bard to ask this question. It said, "I do not have enough information about that person to help with your request. I am a large language model, and I am able to communicate and generate human-like text in response to a wide range of prompts and questions, but my knowledge about this person is limited. Is there anything else I can do to help you with this request?"
My research has led me to these conclusions.
The Gospels' pericopeal sequence only makes sense if Mark was composed in the third possible section.
It is quite puzzling that Matthew, the most Jewish of the gospels, was also the most widely read in the Gentile church unless Matthew served as the main source.
The early historians prioritized Matthew because they had access to a wealth of now-deleted sources.
If Matthew arrived first, that would explain the tiny accords between Matthew and Luke the best.
It seems that Mark uses a lot more of Matthew's preferred terms and expressions than the reverse
There is a lot of "preaching" content shared by Matthew and Luke; Matthew's tends to be organized into longer sermons, while Luke's is more dispersed throughout other content.
Scholars of the New Testament almost unanimously agree that the writing of the Gospels began after the year 70 CE. Conservative evangelicals are the main exceptions, and they frequently start dating them sooner.
Scholars usually hold that the Gospels of Matthew and John were written by Jesus' disciples, and it seems improbable that they would still be alive at the end of the first century (particularly considering the life expectancies in ancient times).
It is generally accepted among critical scholars that Mark was the first Gospel, written in the year 70 CE; Matthew and Luke followed a few years later, in the years 80–85 CE; and John was the last Gospel, published in the years 90–95 CE. I have read articles about the Synoptic Problem before.However, how do researchers arrive at those dates?
This version of the topic within Johannine Studies is beyond my depth and comprehension. What are some good sources on this deep topic within Biblical Studies?
