Abstract
This study explores whether Johannine and Pauline Christianity show a common understanding of mimesis. Discourse on mimesis began in Graeco-Roman antiquity, so I will develop a model of Graeco-Roman mimesis and use it heuristically to examine whether the Johannine and Pauline writings adhere to it. If they do, we can justifiably compare the concept of mimesis in John and Paul based on this shared model. The findings show that, although there are differences in the workings of mimesis in John and Paul, there is sufficient evidence of a shared model that corresponds to that in Graeco-Roman antiquity.
