In this volume, Smith views the Fourth Gospel within several
contexts in order to illuminate its specific purposes and
achievements. A growing consensus of recent scholarship (including
Martyn, Raymond E. Brown, Meeks) seeks the roots of this Gospel and
its traditions in the coflict between Jesus' followers and
opponents within Judaism. In their struggles, Jesus' followers are
encouraged and strengthened by his continuing presence in the
Spirit, which articulates his meaning for new situations. Although
distinctive, Johannine Christianity does not develop in complete
isolation from the broader Christian Gospels. Out of a fascinating,
if complex, setting develops the strikingly unique statement of
Christian faith, practice, and doctrine found in the Gospel of
John. The purpose of this commentary is to enable the reader to
comprehend that statement in historical perspective in order to
appreciate its meaning and significance.
