What does John 21:24-25 Mean?

Contextual Meaning

Some commentators refer to this ending as a colophon. A colophon is the finishing stroke and crowning touch to a document. It is an inscription placed at the end of a book or manuscript that contains basic information about it such as the title, writer"s name, and date and place of writing. However, it is more similar to a postscript because it contains only hints of the writer"s identity. Mainly it claims that this Gospel is a reliable though limited record of Jesus" actions.
