A critical analysis of the historicity of the Gospel of John

Since it began in 2002, the John, Jesus, and History Project has assessed critically the modern disparaging of John's historicity and has found this bias wanting. In this third volume, an international group of experts demonstrate over two dozen ways in which John contributes to an enhanced historical understanding of Jesus and his ministry. This volume does not simply argue for a more inclusive quest for Jesus—one that embraces John instead of programmatically excluding it. It shows that such a quest has already indeed begun.

Features

•An overview of paradigm shifts in Jesus scholarship and recent approaches to the Johannine riddles

Detailed charts that illuminates John's similarities and differences form the Synoptic Gospels as well as the gospel's contributions to the historical Jesus research

Having been raised in Colombia, Ecuador, and Dominican Republic, where my father worked in cultural affairs, I've always welcomed alternative ways to look at things. When reflecting on the Gospel of John's theological tensions, I've wondered how they came to be the way they are presented. When thinking about historical Jesus studies, I've questioned why they have programmatically omitted the one Gospel that claims direct contact with Jesus (John, that is). When looking at conflict in the world today, I've imagined what it would be like to take problem-solving seriously, in non-violent and discerning ways.

My writings reflect these types of interests, and I welcome input from all sides. All truth is liberating, and any discipline that furthers our inquiry into the truth can be serviceable in its being sought.

I have served in pastoral ministry among Friends and have taught at George Fox University since 1989 (other than teaching one year at Yale Divinity School, 1998-1999). My calling is to pursue the truth, and in that quest I am deeply indebted to fellow pilgrims along the way. Thank you for joining me in that quest!

The third is my favorite based on variety of topics and authorship

Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2016

Verified Purchase

This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the latest scholarly discussions on the historical aspects of John's Gospel. I own all three volumes in this set. The third is my favorite based on variety of topics and authorship. Friends, you will discover truly original discussion, argumentation, and conclusions among the many essays in this collection. My deepest thanks to the SBL folks in Atlanta sponsoring a dynamic cast of editors not afraid of taking on the the most difficult themes facing contemporary New Testament studies. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
