About this ebook
Here is the Gospel of John, the "beloved disciple."Colin G. Kruse explains how the Gospel of John alone speaks of the Logos who was with the Father in the beginning, who came down from heaven, incarnate in the person of Jesus. In this respect Johnis unlike any of the other Gospels. In John, Jesus' message is presented mainly in terms of eternal life and resurrection and his teaching is frequently presented in long conversations, discourses and debates. Outstanding in this Gospel is the extensive teaching about the Holy Spirit. For all these distinctives, a study of John is not to be missed.The Tyndale New Testament Commentaries have long been a trusted resource for Bible study. Written by some of the world's most distinguished evangelical scholars, these twenty volumes offer clear, reliable, and relevant explanations of every book in the New Testament.These Tyndale volumes are designed to help readers understand what the Bible actually says and what it means. The introduction to each volume gives a concise but thorough description of the authorship, date, and historical background of the biblical book under consideration. The commentary itself examines the text section by section, drawing out its main themes. It also commentson individual verses and deals with problems of interpretation. The aim throughout is to get at the true meaning of the Bible and to make its message plain to readers today.
