Raymond E. Brown, Auburn Distinguished Professor of Biblical Studies at Union Theological Seminary (NYC), is recognized throughout the world as one of the foremost commentators on John in our generation. This present work brings his career to full cycle. The first short book he wrote on John was in 1960 as part of The Liturgical Press' New Testament Reading Guide, a commentary that has been reedited several times. Then in 1966-67 there appeared in two volumes his 1400-page Anchor Bible Commentary on the Gospel, which received wide acclaim for the sweep of its scholar-ship and the intelligibility of its conclusions. In 1979 Brown broke new ground with The Community of the Beloved Disciple, a compre-hensive attempt to describe the life of the Johannine church as it struggled with the brilliant but adventuresome theology of the Gospel. The maturing of a quarter century of reflections on John came with his 800-page Anchor Bible Commentary on the Epistles in 1982. Now he brings his work to full cycle by redoing his early effort to comment on the Gospel and Epistles briefly. In this short book he has summarized his reflections on these two great New Testament works in the same scope and format that he used in his first writing for The Liturgical Press nearly thirty years ago. Nowhere else will one find so concise a summary of Brown's un-derstanding of the Johannine writings. 226.50770814512830 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 226.5077 Bro g E10002218 Non Fiction 226.5077 Bro g E12002536 Non Fiction 226.5077 Bro g-2 Gospel_and_Epistles_of_John.jpg 58925 2014-12-16 10:48:29 2025-03-14 17:02:45 machine generated
