Jesus in John's Gospel 3/e

R. Alan Culpepper -- McAfee School of Theology, Mercer University "Jesus in John's Gospel could only have been written by one who has been deeply immersed in the Fourth Gospel and Johannine scholarship for decades. Loader is acutely sensitive to the nuances of John's language and thought, has followed closely the debates over Johannine theology, and masterfully sets John's Christology in dialogue with the Jewish context of early Christianity. The result is an engaging guide to new insights into the New Testament's most profound reflections on the incarnation, death, and exaltation of Jesus. This is a masterpiece!" Francis J. Moloney -- Australian Catholic University "A landmark study. Loader leaves no stone unturned and no significant scholar ignored as he unravels the implications of his insights into the structure of Johannine Christology. Loader's position on John's structure has been widely accepted, but the issues that flow from that structure continue to arouse a great deal of unresolved discussion, all of which can be found in Loader's wonderful documentation. No issue is sidestepped. . . . This book must become the essential point of reference for all future discussion of Johannine Christology."
