Journal for the Study of the New Testament Supplement #182: New Readings in John: Literary Theological Perspectives Essays from the Scandinavian Conference on the Fourth Gospel in Aarhus 1997

by Johannes Nissen

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This collection by Scandinavian scholars offers new studies on classical and modern problems in relation to the Fourth Gospel. There are essays on John and the Synoptics, and on John and the Qumran Scrolls. Other essays present new literary approaches such as the question of the 'implied reader', biblical imagery, and irony and sectarianism. Central theological issues are discussed, including the problem of anti-Judaism, the interpretation of the death of Jesus, the concept of mission, the relation between community and ethics, and the understanding of God in the Johannine writings.
