When Was John's Gospel Written?

John's Gospel is one of the four canonical gospels in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. It is considered to be the last of the four gospels to be written, and the authorship of this book is traditionally attributed to the apostle John, one of Jesus' twelve disciples. However, the precise dating of John's Gospel has been a matter of scholarly debate and discussion for centuries.The majority of scholars agree that John's Gospel was likely written in the late first century, between 90-100 AD. This dating is based on several factors, including the relationship between John's Gospel and the three Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke), as well as historical and theological considerations.
