John’s portrayal of Jesus is one of the most fascinating and provocative in the New Testament. It presents him as both human and divine, and this tension has been a prolific source of debate and disagreement within Christianity and beyond. The purpose of this work is to explore the origins and character of the unity and disunity of John’s Christology.

Editorial Reviews
Review
" probing review of the literature and his own thoughtful analysis make this a model study for New Testament scholarship." -- The Bible Today
"Anderson gathers a rich harvest from the modern exegesis of the Gospel of John, particularly chapter 6, and offers his own solution to the problem of literary and theological tensions within that chapter and the Gospel." -- Religious Studies Review
"Anderson's exegesis of John 6 is detailed and unusually persuasive. He throws fresh light on many of the tensions identified by Bultmann, providing plausible explanations of the dynamics of the text without appeals to hypothetical sources. Eight appendixes give readers ready access to the passages that contribute to the various themes of Johannine Christology." -- Journal for the Study of the NT
"Christology of the Fourth Gospel provides a significant addition to the many discussions of John's Christology in recent years. Anderson's work offers a fresh approach to the subject, and a striking set of conclusions that will stimulate discussion for years to come." -- The Princeton Seminary Bulletin
First rate! Probably the most detailed and perceptive study of John 6 available today. From the account of the multiplication of the loaves and Jesus bread of life discourse, Anderson derives admirable insights into Johns Christology and the way the Gospel was composed. -- Raymond E. Brown, Union Seminary, New York
