The gospel of John's from above orientation transforms our human
from below assumptions and habits. It draws us into union with God
and into unity with one another. It communicates who Jesus is, in
both intimate and profound dimensions. The book of John shapes
Christian identity, invigorates worship, and implants eternal
hope.
John's gospel defies description, marvels Swartley, professor
emeritus at Anabaptist Mennonite Biblical Seminary. It soars like
the eagle, links heaven and earth, and both comforts and convicts
the human heart. Its Christology is rich, with a plethora of titles
for Jesus-even the divine eternal I AM.
Though commentaries on the book of John abound, this volume
follows the unique Believers Church Bible Commentary Series format,
providing sections on The Text in Biblical Context and The Text in
the Life of the Church. According to Swartley, this format serves
well the interests of seminary as well as other graduate
students
