Everything About John the Evangelist You Ever Wanted to Know,
By
This review is from: Understanding the Fourth Gospel (Clarendon Paperbacks) (Paperback)
Ashton has left no stone unturned. Every pebble has been picked up, looked at, cataloged, set aside, and used. There is no aspect of Johannine studies that Ashton has not read, learned, mastered and presented here in this literal encyclopedia of Johannine learning. This is not an easy bedtime book to read. Like climbing a mountain. It requires effort. It requires patience. It requires seriousness and diligence. But for the person willing to work through this massively written, theologically dense, literate work on John's gospel -- the view and scenery are breathtaking and you will never be the same. Once I finished reading it, it took my breath away when I considered what Ashton was up to here. Ashton shows himself a master of Johannine studies as few others are, and there are many brilliant commentators on John. Not for the faint of heart, but worthy of study and reflection.
