A theology of John's Gospel and letters

the Word, the Christ, the Son of God

  • 1 Want to read

The first title in Zondervan's new, eight-volume Biblical Theology of the New Testament series, this landmark textbook by leading Johannine scholar Andreas Köstenberger thoroughly explores John's Gospel and letters and relates them to the rest of the New Testament and the Bible as a whole. This is by far the most comprehensive treatment of John's writings available and makes an ideal college- or seminary-level text. A Theology of John's Gospel and Letters introduces the first volume in the BTNT series. Building on many years of research and study in Johannine literature, Andreas Köstenberger not only furnishes an exhaustive theology of John's Gospel and letters, but also provides a detailed study of major themes and relates them to the Synoptic Gospels and other New Testament books. Readers will gain an in-depth and holistic grasp of Johannine theology in the larger context of the Bible. - Publisher.
