Wendy North is an Honorary Research Fellow in Theology at the University of Durham, where she is currently teaching a course on John’s Gospel.

Her first degree was in Divinity and Music at Newcastle University, where she also gained a teaching qualification. Thereafter she moved to Hull, where she acquired post-graduate qualifications in the Theology Department there, and also taught courses for the Department. She gained her PhD at the University of Wales, Bangor, during that time. In 1999, she and her husband Lionel moved to Darlington where they continue their research interests and maintain strong links with the Durham Theology Department. Wendy’s publications include articles and essays in the area of Johannine studies and also a book, entitled The Lazarus Story in the Johannine Tradition (Sheffield Academic Press, 2001). This paper, she hopes, will become the kernel of a major study on John and the Synoptics.
