Have a go at answering the questions rather than just make assumptions. John or rather the author(s) of the John Gospel used that expression for some unclear reason. Are you suggesting Jesus didn't also love his other disciples ?
Goodness don't let ppm hear that. After all didn't Jesus love Peter so much he supposedly entrusted to him the care of his future Church. Mind you he also called him Satan.
Not to mention the wisest and most favoured of all. Mary Magdalene. Before the misogynists practically removed her from the scriptures.
