3.0 out of 5 stars Solid, but not in depth, June 13, 2009
This review is from: Reading John: A Literary and Theological Commentary on the Fourth Gospel and the Johannine Epistles (Reading the New Testament (Smyth & Helwys)) (Paperback)
Overall, "Reading John" is a solid commentary, although it is not a verse by verse commentary. Rather, the book deals with themes and concepts and does a fine job cross-referencing them throughout the Gospel and Letters of John.

The author spent several pages at the beginning arguing for his preferred chronology of the four texts. While the brief historic overview was insightful, the author does not make a convincing case as to why his (or any other orderings) really matters in regards to the text and interpretation of the text.
