FOR
Wescott:
Was a Palestinian Jew (so knew customs, language) (explains Jewish pattern & lanugage in Prologue)
Was present at intimate/exclusive events (e.g. last supper, Jesus' questioning)
Grew up in Galilee, so knew the area well.
Language is of a Jew.
AGAINST
Sometimes confusion over High Priest (18:13- Caiaphas, 18:19- Annas)
Sometime called Sea of Galilee, even though not named this until later (too old!)
Fishermen were not well educated enough to write
