Did the Apostle Paul Know the Gospel of John?

Explore the fascinating similarities between Paul’s letters and the Gospel of John.
Michael Gorman

About the Lecture

In this lecture, New Testament scholar Michael J. Gorman will present highlights from his recent book Paul and John in Harmony: A Theological and Historical Exploration (Baker Academic, 2026). He will consider certain key similarities between the Gospel of John and the writings of Paul. Could these similarities possibly suggest, not that John knew Paul, but that Paul knew John? Is Paul a Johannine theologian?
