The absence of such discourses in the Synoptics might suggest that John’s discourses are idiosyncratic vehicles for theologizing, wherein Jesus’ speech mirrors Johannine idiom. In this article, I re-examine Jesus’ farewell discourse in John 13–17 in light of the view that John is dependent on Mark’s Gospel. Although John 13–17 is not often considered a connection between these Gospels, I argue that John built this material from Mark 12–14, seeking to improve and expand Mark in a competitive literary marketplace and to persuade his readers to view Jesus and themselves in a particularly Johannine way. John’s compositional practices in his farewell discourse material will be compared with two Jewish texts (Chronicles and Jubilees) which reinterpret earlier source material to create farewell discourses.engCC-BY - Uznanie autorstwaGospel of Johncompositional practicesrewritingJubileesChroniclesGospel of MarkSecond Temple JudaismBibleOld TestamentBook of GenesisNew Testamentbiblical studiesexegesisbiblical exegesistheologybiblical theologyexegetical analysisphilologybiblical philologyliterary analysisphilological analysisBook of JubileesEwangelia według św.
