Publishers Description
A Theology of John's Gospel and Letters introduces the first volume in the BTNT series. Building on many years of research and study in Johannine literature, Andreas K stenberger not only furnishes an exhaustive theology of John's Gospel and letters, but also provides a detailed study of major themes and relates them to the Synoptic Gospels and other New Testament books. Readers will gain an in-depth and holistic grasp of Johannine theology in the larger context of the Bible.D. A. Carson (Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) says about K stenberger's volume that 'for the comprehensiveness of its coverage in the field of Johannine theology (Gospel and Letters), there is nothing to compare to this work.'I. Howard Marshall (University of Aberdeen) writes, 'This book is a 'first' in many ways: the first volume that sets the pattern for the quality and style of the new Biblical Theology of the New Testament series published by Zondervan; the first major volume to be devoted specifically to the theology of John's Gospel and Letters at a high academic level; and the first volume to do so on the basis that here we have an interpretation of John's theology composed by an eyewitness of the life and passion of Jesus.'The Biblical Theology of the New Testament SeriesThe Biblical Theology of the New Testament (BTNT) series provides upper college and seminary-level textbooks for students of New Testament theology, interpretation, and exegesis. Pastors and discerning theology readers alike will also benefit from this series. Written at the highest level of academic excellence by recognized experts in the field, the BTNT series not only offers a comprehensive exploration of the theology of every book of the New Testament, including introductory issues and major themes, but also shows how each book relates to the broad picture of New Testament theology. |

Reviews - What do customers think about Theology Of Johns Gospel Letters?
 | A Pleasure to Read Nov 18, 2009 |
| I have always been more of a biblical theologian than a systematic theologian. That is why I was very happy to read Andreas Kostenberger's new book A Theology of John's Gospel and Letters. This is the first volume in a new series in biblical theology that will be edited by Kostenberger. My first impression of this book (other than being big as it is 567 pages) was that it was a pleasure to read. The reader is taken on a journey throughout the whole range of issues regarding John's Gospel and letters. Everything from grammar to the cross to salvation to characters to the community and beyond is dealt with in this volume. This is an extensive study and Kostenberger interacts with the scholarship of today and past generations. Kostenberger comes at the issues from a quite conservative background. He affirms John the Apostle as the author (against scholars such as Richard Bauckham) and is critical of the whole theory of a Johannine community. As an evangelical, I have no problem with that. However, I find the idea of reconciling John's positioning of the clearing of the Temple at the beginning and the synoptic placing at the end by suggesting two cleansings of the Temple unconvincing. I think you can accept a rearranging of events for theological and literary purposes and still affirm a high view of Scripture. Overall, this is a very good book that is a wonderful introduction to the issues surrounding the writings of John. Unfortunately the letters of John were pretty much swallowed up by the work on the Gospel, but other than that this is a very useful addition to scholarship. This book is very readable and will be good for the interested layperson as well as having enough research to benefit the scholar. This book is highly recommended. | | | Write your own review about Theology Of Johns Gospel Letters
