Over the last two centuries, many scholars have considered the
Gospel of John off-limits for all quests for the historical Jesus.
That stance, however, creates a new set of problems that need to be
addressed thoughtfully. The essays in this book, reflecting the
ongoing deliberations of an international group of Johannine and
Jesus scholars, critically assess two primary assumptions of the
prevalent view: the dehistoricization of John and the
de-Johannification of Jesus. The approaches taken here are diverse,
including cognitive-critical developments of Johannine memory,
distinctive characteristics of the Johannine witness, new
historicism, Johannine-Synoptic relations, and fresh analyses of
Johannine traditional development. In addition to offering
state-of-the-art reviews of Johannine studies and Jesus studies,
this volume draws together an emerging consensus that sees the
Gospel of John as an autonomous tradition with its own perspective,
in dialogue with other traditions. Through this challenging of
critical and traditional assumptions alike, new approaches to
John's age-old riddles emerge, and the ground is cleared for new
and creative ways forward. The contributors are Paul Anderson; D.
A. Carson; Colleen M. Conway; Paula Fredriksen; Felix Just, S.J.;
Robert Kysar; Andrew Lincoln; John Painter; Sidney Palmer; Mark
Allan Powell; D. Moody Smith; Tom Thatcher; Marianne Meye Thompson;
Gilbert Van Belle; and Jack Verheyden. Paperback edition is
available from the Society of Biblical Literature
