All the Gospels recognize Jesus as a prophet, but it is above all
in the Gospel of John that this dimension of his work is stressed.
Cho explores the many elements in the Gospel that add up to what
can rightly be called a prophetic christology. He shows that many
of Jesus' words and some of his deeds are prophetic in character,
and that Jesus is not just a prophet like the Old Testament
prophets before him but the prophet like Moses expected for the
times of the End. Identifying Jesus as a prophet, Cho goes on to
argue, is important within the narrative of the Gospel of John: it
is a way-station on a journey of discovery towards a more profound
appreciation of Jesus' identity. Recognizing Jesus as prophet is
for John an initial step in coming to faith, and, in the overall
christology of the Gospel of John a significant element in
attaining a balance but a high and a low christology. The
construction of Jesus as prophet, though well evidenced in the
Gospel, has received remarkably little attention in recent
scholarly study, and Cho's work is a much-needed full-scale study
of the theme.
