The entire discussion took place, I think, within February, so you won't
have far to look in those archives. Some bibliography was discussed in the
course of the thread, and this will bring some more out of the woodwork (or
network, as the case may be). One of the most important places to look
would be in the second volume of Raymond Brown's Anchor Bible commentary on
John's Gospel. He has some good appendix discussions of synonymous words in
John and he does discuss the question in his treatment of chapter 21, where
that interchange between Jesus and Peter involving the alternation of the
two verbs takes place.
