With this discovery, the long discussion came to an end and the poisonous criticism was extinguished because the diggings proved that the gospel of John was known in the year 100 AD, not only in Asia Minor but also in North Africa. There is no doubt that it was also known in Rome.
Kwa ugunduzi huu, yale majadiliano mengi kuhusu wakati wa uandishi wa injili ya Yohana, yalifikia kikomo na ubishi wa kupinga ukweli ukakomeshwa. Uchimbaji huu unathibitisha kuwa injili ya Yohana iljulikana mwaka 100 BK, na wala si katika Asia Ndogo tu, bali pia kwa maeneo ya Afrika kaskazini. Hamna shaka kabisa kwamba, ilijulikana huko Rumi pia.
