The presentation of John in the Gospel is similar to Jesus: Mark depicts John as a prophetic figure who is arrested, executed, buried by his disciples, and ‒ according to some ‒ raised from the dead. This paper reviews scholarship on the question of whether the tradition concerning John’s resurrection ‒ as well as the tradition concerning his death to which it is prefixed (6:17-29) ‒ originated outside of the early Christian community. We examine the possibility that sects or individuals in the ancient world believed John had indeed been raised from the dead ‒ as well as figures supposedly connected to John (Dositheus, Simon Magus). We conclude on the basis of internal evidence from the Gospel that the report in 6:14-16 likely originated in a Christian context. At the same time, it may also provide a glimpse into first-century CE attitudes concerning the resurrection from the dead.enCC-BY - Uznanie autorstwaGospel of MarkresurrectionJohn the Baptisthistorical JesusSecond Temple JudaismSamaritan studiesSecond Temple periodBibleOld TestamentNew Testamentbiblical studiesexegesisbiblical exegesisEwangelia według św.
