Drawing on the insights of ancient literary theory and practice, this book seeks to unlock the age-old puzzle of the relationship of John's gospel to the other gospels and to the early Christian church. Applying a new method to an old problem, Brodie uses a form of source analysis that takes account of the practices of ancient writers to reveal John as someone who deliberately rendered the earlier gospels into a new language. The deeply theological, and at the same time more down-to-earth voice characteristic of John is revealed to be not that of a marginal community ("the Johannine community") but of an independent prophetic presence within the mainstream church. 226.5060195075889 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 226.506 6 Bro q E07004281 Non Fiction 226.506 6 Bro q download_-_2025-04-14T175734.791.jpg 60967 2014-12-16 10:48:29 2025-04-14 17:58:57 machine generated
