Craig Koester's respected study uses the symbolic language of the Gospel of John as a focus to explore "the Gospel's literary dimensions, social and historical context, and theological import." This edition is fully revised and updated and includes a number of new sections on such topics as Judas and the knowledge of God. Fresh treatments are given on a number of issues, including the Gospel's Christology. This new edition offers both new insights and proven worth for students and scholars alike.
Craig R. Koester is Professor of New Testament at Luther Seminary in St Paul, Minnesota. He received his Ph.D. in New Testament from Union Theological Seminary in New York.
