Beskrivning
An accessible commentary on the Gospel of John, emphasising the Gospel's vision of a new humanity bound to God by the new covenant made in Jesus.In this commentary Kanagaraj examines how John projects the church as God's "new covenant community", which is characterized by two virtues: love and obedience. Impossible to exhibit under the old covenant based on Moses' Law, these qualities became possible by the initiative grace and faithfulness of God revealed in Jesus and demonstrated by the power of the Spirit. God's new community is an inclusive and progressive community because its witness to Jesus in a world that hates and persecutes it has the power to bring in all people so that they may become one flock under one shepherd. Kanagaraj argues that the idea of founding and nurturing a new community was in God's heart even before the time of creation and not just at the time of incarnation.

Recensioner i media

This is not yet another commentary on the Gospel of John; rather it comes from an experienced teacher-scholar who has spent many years in studying its contexts and text and in seeking to make this Gospel understandable to informed students as well as to any interested lay reader. [...] Every interested person will find this book beneficial and edifying. Therefore, I recommend it warmly.
