In his gospel, the apostle John provides a unique perspective on the public life and ministry of Jesus that is very different from the Synoptic Gospels by Matthew, Mark and Luke. One of the most distinctive features is the recording of what has been, called the "Upper Room Ministry", which includes the so-called "High Priestly Prayer of Jesus. The content is even more poignant given that the events described occurred just a few hours before the cross.
