Paul Anderson, a leading scholar of the Fourth Gospel, provides an introductory textbook, crafted for a semester course, which leads students through literary, historical, and theological aspects of the Fourth Gospel's most vexing puzzles. Traditional, historical-critical, and literary-critical approaches are deftly introduced and their limitations evaluated; questions of the Gospel's authorship, composition, relationship to the Synoptics, and origins in particular historical experiences are succinctly addressed; and distinctive Johannine perspectives on Jesus, the church, and the world are discussed.
Paul N. Anderson is Professor of Biblical and Quaker Studies at George Fox University and author of The Fourth Gospel and the Quest for Jesus: Modern Foundations Reconsidered (2006) and The Christology of the Fourth Gospel: Its Unity and Disunity in the Light of John 6 (1997).
