dc.description.abstractAccording to Luke, the ascending Jesus instructs his disciples to remain in Jerusalem until they are ‘clothed with power from on high’ (Luke 24:49). In the account of the Acts of the Apostles, the Master’s promise is fulfilled on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2:1–4). John, however, presents the gift of the Holy Spirit differently. In the Fourth Gospel, the Church receives the gift of the Spirit in the ‘hour of Jesus.’ John emphasizes that Jesus, ‘bowed his head and gave up his spirit’ (John 19:30), marking the inauguration of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. This gift is also symbolized by the water that flowed from Jesus’ side (John 19:34). The Risen Christ imparted this Spirit to his disciples when he appeared to them and “breathed on them” (John 20:22). This paper explores the theological intent of John, who shapes the Passion narrative and the account of the Resurrection to demonstrate that the gift of the Spirit is continuously bestowed by Jesus upon the Church community. The study seeks to answer whether John’s account presents a different perspective on the ‘gift of the Spirit’ compared to Luke’s or whether it serves to complement it.en
