Excellent scholarship, conservative theology, accessibly written. D.A. Carson contributes an awesome commentary that functions as an almost one-stop-shop surveying the necessary issues and providing clear exegetical helps on textual and historical issues, as well as fleshing out the intertextual and canonical connections. In short, this is a fantastic commentary on an often commented Gospel. If you are preaching through John, or leading a Sunday School class through this precious book, Carson's commentary is a must.

This has been incredibly helpful in writing inductive Bible studies on the book of John. I highly recommend it as a member of the clergy. What you'll find in this book is insightful and also academic. There are plenty of reviews on this book so I will end mine saying I have deeply benefitted from owning this commentary.

I am currently preaching through John's Gospel on Sunday mornings and this is my go-to commentary every week. The Gospel of John is the very center of Carson's wheelhouse and I'm so glad that Pillar chose him to write this.

Have this commentary by your side! As I'm preaching John, Carson's JOHN is my go-to. He deals with every major issue; nothing seems to get passed him. A thorough, scholarly, fresh work. Keep this on your short-shelf next to Leon Morris.

Excellent volume. If your going to preach through The Gospel According to John this commentary is a must. Carson gives solid, conservative biblical exegesis.

Excellent resource with insights into the Gospel of John. DA Carson does a good job and has a number of other commentaries one might want to add to their collection.

Carson writes in a pleasingly accessible manner without compromising scholarly rigour. It's as rewarding to read in bed as it is useful to have on hand on one's desk. Reliable. Balanced. Judicious.

Believing and informative

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 25, 2019

Too many commentaries doubt the authenticity of John's gospel. This is not one of them. Don Carson was a signatory to the Chicago Declaration, so he regards the Bible as inerrant. So do I. If the Bible says there were two cleansings of the Temple, there were two cleansings of the Temple. If it says that Jesus turned the water into wine, He turned water into wine. He takes issue with Barclay, who thought walking on the sea was the same as walking by the sea. He decisively proves that the meal at which Jesus washed the disciples' feet was a Passover meal, 15 Nisan.He also proves that the author is John.
The work is scholarly, which means Carson must use terms that laymen like me do not understand, and which are not found in ordinary dictionaries. Very kindly, a explains them the first time he uses them!
One can understand the Gospel better through reading this book. The author explains the language, context, background and spiritual meaning of everything Jesus does or says. (some commentaries explain the Bible, others explain it away. this one explains it.) He explains 3;3, about the New Birth, convincingly, as one who knows what he is talking about.
One of the reviews says "everyone will disagree with the author's interpretion at one point or another. " I have complied! I do not agree with Don that Jesus was now the true Israel. The true Israel is, if you will forgive me, Israel!
To finish the quotation on the back cover, "No one will read this book without gaining new insights into John's Gospel" That also is true.
Also, unusually in a commentary, Dr Carson displays warmth and humour.
My one cavil is that there is an index to modern authors, and an index to Biblical references, but no topical index. Perhaps at the next impression?

Nice one Don!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 21, 2012

The bottom-line for any commentary has to be can the average Pastor who loves the Bible and wants to teach it well to his congregation get anything out of it and understand it when he has limited time among his many concerns and is probably tired as well. If that is the case then this commentary from Don Carson gets a big thumbs up from this Pastor! As I'm preaching through John's Gospel at the moment and having just had my birthday and a generous gift from my congregation I decided to purchase this as I'm coming up to some of the difficult narratives in the centre of the Gospel. Well I've use it twice now and each time I have to say, although this is not a lightweight commentary, it is written in a way that is easy to understand. Carson never avoids anything that is difficult in the text and always gets to the heart of what the narrative is about. He also never loses sight of the theological threads that are John's main concern in writing this Gospel, that is Jesus Christ, his humanity and his divinity!

Very Impressed

Excellent commentary. Style is academic but accessible, meaning the kind of relevant info I need, without too much abstruse technicality. Scholarly, but at my level, and at least half an eye on a preacher's requirements. Reasonably conservative, without ignoring obvious difficulties, and excellent knowledge of competing theories, without becoming lost in the various possibilities for controversy.

This commentary was recommended to me by the man who taught me New Testament Greek as the best commentary on John's Gospel he knew. Anything by Don Carson is worth reading. And I heartily recommend this commentary to anyone who values in depth, evangelical New Testament scholarship.
