The Gospel of John, full of striking language and symbolism, is familiar to many as a sourcebook of favorite quotations.

It is far more difficult to read this complex and subtle Gospel as a coherent whole on its own terms.

In this addition to the well-received Paideia series, an expert on John's dramatic rhetoric helps students and pastors do just that.

Paideia commentaries explore how New Testament texts form Christian readers by

* attending to the ancient narrative and rhetorical strategies the text employs

* showing how the text shapes theological convictions and moral habits

* commenting on the final, canonical form of each New Testament book

* focusing on the cultural, literary, and theological settings of the text

* making judicious use of maps, photos, and sidebars in a reader-friendly format

This commentary, like each in the projected eighteen-volume series, proceeds by sense units rather than word-by-word or verse-by-verse. [Språk: Engelska] Häftad
