In the Johannine theology speaks of God emerges as "the father" over against "the Son" particularly striking, as is the talk of the divine filiation of believers (John 1:12). But is striking that in the Gospel of John, only in 20.17, is in the context of the Easter appearances explicitly speak of God as Father of the disciples. In an exegetical passage through the Johannine farewell discourse, in which the relationship between the disciples and God in the horizon of the impending death of Jesus is treated, and in the analysis of the relevant passages of John Easter narratives determined Frances back the importance of the speech of God as Father of the disciples closer to the composition and theology of John's Gospel.
