Resumo: In the Johannine literature, Jesus is presented or presents himself using different categories, two of these categories being ―prophet‖ and ―light‖. The purpose of this thesis starts with the assumption that the Fourth Gospel was composed in traditional steps: Basic tradition (TB); the First Gospel (E1); the Second Gospel, called the Transformed Gospel (E2); and the Third Gospel (E3) in which I included the Johannine letters. The category ―prophet‖ (John 1,41; 4,19,25-29; 6,14; 7,40; 9,17) is found exclusively in TB and is adopted by E1. These two steps of the tradition do not distinguish between the category ―prophet‖ and ―Christ/Messiah‖ for the Johannine community. The category ―light‖ (John 3,19-21; 5,35; 8,12; 9,5; 12,46-50) however is neither found in TB, nor in E1. It only appears in E2 and E3. Thus the narrative of the Healing of the Blind Man (John9,1-41) reflects the situation of the community. The discussion following the statement of the former blind man that Jesus is a prophet and Jesus´ self-revelation as ―light‖ establish a mark of identity. In the Johannine literature conflicts have an ―educational‖ purpose for the development of identity. The interest is not to compose community experiences into a dramatic narrative, but to present a specific comprehension of Jesus that encourages and brings forth faith. In this pericope one can perceive that the categories ―prophet‖ and ―light― are interchangeable and become categories to describe Jesus. This interchangeability that indicates one segment of the reconstruction of the identity of the Johannine community is the object of this study.
