Have you ever wondered why Matthew (Matthew 24), Mark (Mark 13) and Luke (Luke 21) all included the Olivet Discourse in their narratives yet John is strangely silent about it in his gospel. Why did he exclude it? Wasn't he the one among the Lord's disciples most likely to write about it?

Actually, he wrote a whole epistle on that discourse and we know it as The Revelation of Jesus Christ, a powerful narrative which corresponds in many places throughout with the structure of Ezekiel.
