The only island which I know that John lived on is Patmos where he was inprisoned and where he wrote the book of revelations. The Apostle who is said to have visited Rhodes is Paul in 57 AD.

Comments on this post
RickJ agrees: Correct. John is not known to have been on Rhodes.

Starman is correct. Just curious doris, why do you ask? Have you heard someone or a group claiming it is so?

Ok, now that I can't read a question and made a fool of myself, I will go to bed, sorry for the wrong answer

The only connection with Rodes to St John ( not Paul who did go there) is that @ 1300 the Knights of St John moved to the island
