'Disciple' in the Bible

"A disciple is not superior to his teacher, nor a slave superior to his master.

So she ran and came to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved and said to them, "They have taken away the Lord from the tomb and we do not know where they have put him!"

Then Peter and the other disciple went out and were going to the tomb.

And the two were running together, and the other disciple ran ahead, faster than Peter, and came to the tomb first.

So then the other disciple who had come to the tomb first also went in, and he saw and believed.

Then that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" So Simon Peter, [when he] heard that it was the Lord, tied around himself his outer garment (for he was naked) and threw himself into the sea.

Peter turned [and] saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following [them] (who also leaned back on his chest at the dinner and said, "Lord, who is the one betraying you?")

So this saying went out to the brothers that that disciple would not die. But Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but "If I want him to remain until I come, what [is that] to you?"
