Biography of St. John:
St. John was the youngest and, according to him, the most beloved disciple of Jesus, one of the most present in the great events of his life. Despite being wealthy, St. John had never attended school of rabbis and was therefore considered a wasteland. St. John is known as the author of the fourth Gospel and of the Book of Revelation, the only prophetic book of the New Testament. After the death of Christ St. John was the one who looked after the Virgin Mary.
