Description
SBL Press John Jesus and History Volume 3 Glimpses of Jesus through the Johannine Lens 2016 Edition by Paul N Anderson, S J Felix Just, Tom Thatcher
Since it began in 2002, the John, Jesus, and History Project has assessed critically the modern disparaging of John's historicity and has found this bias wanting. The Gospel of John possesses aspects of historicity distinctive from the Synoptics, and those who neglect it in their quests for Jesus do so to their peril. In this third volume, an international group of distinguished experts demonstrate over two dozen ways in which John contributes to an enhanced historical understanding of Jesus and his ministry. Moving from the last days of Jesus to his works and words, this volume provides glimpses of Jesus through the Johannine lens-a significant advance in Jesus research!
