Phillips undertakes a sequential reading of the Prologue of John's
Gospel. By using the reading strategies of Iser, Emmott, and Eco,
the book establishes a reading strategy termed sequential
disclosure, which is then applied to the text. In order to arrive
at the reading, preliminary chapters focus both on historical
interpretation of the Prologue in terms of reader response and on
the role of the author, the use of persuasion and the development
of irony. Special focus is given to the role of the dramatic
prologue, as well as the interaction between rhetoric, irony and
community. As such, the book discusses the role of the reading
process in developing a specific community language. The book
focuses on the didactic role of the Prologue in teaching readers
this language and so including them into the Johannine community.
The reading of the Prologue highlights the key aspects of the
reading process: ambiguity and disambiguation; resemanticization;
antilanguage; community development and intertextuality. A
sequential reading of the Prologue highlights the didactic and
evangelistic role of this text. JSNTS 294
