5.0 out of 5 stars One of the seminal works on this Gospel., March 19, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Anatomy of the Fourth Gospel (Paperback)
There is no question that any scholar who wishes to understand the Gospel of John will have read this book. Dr. Culpepper provides a scaffolding whereby the reader can approach the literary context of the Gospel on any of its many levels. If I had to reccomend the essential Gospel of John library, and could only include four books, it would include this one (as well as C.H. Dodd's two books and R.E. Brown's commentary). Admittedly, I am biased. Dr. Culpepper is a friend. However, you can verify my words by checking the index of any commentary on John which was written after the publication of this book. Count how many time Dr. Culpepper is mentioned

5.0 out of 5 stars Anatomy of the Fourth Gospel, July 18, 2007
This review is from: Anatomy of the Fourth Gospel (Paperback)
There cannot be a more forensic study of the book of John than Culpepper's Anatomy of the Fourth Gospel. This scholarly book opens up the world of the Gospel of John like no other in the protestant world. This book should be mandatory reading for every Doctoral student in Biblical Studies (and probably master's as well).

5.0 out of 5 stars The rich storytelling in John, December 16, 1999
This review is from: Anatomy of the Fourth Gospel (Paperback)
I was introduced to this book soon after it was published. I return to it first whenever I find myself in a study of John. Culpepper brings a new depth to understanding John as literature. It was this book that helped me appreciate the literary depth of this gospel. Your appreciation of the details will be wonderfully expanded. Highly recommended.

(I came to this site in Amazon hoping to find the book to give to a pastor preaching through John. I was delighted to find it still in print.)
