Ben Witherington places the Gospel of John within its proper literary, historical, social, and theological contexts, with a special emphasis on dealing with the wisdom traditions of Hellenistic Judaism. What emerges is a compelling argument that the Gospel of John has an agenda for mission, in addition to concerns for discipleship and community life.` -- From book cover.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Ben Witherington, III</note> <subject> <topic>Bible -- John</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">226.5077</classification> <classification authority="ddc">B456-W82</classification> <identifier type="isbn">066425621X</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/2/8/1045.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/2/8/1045.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordContentSource authority="marcorg">1</recordContentSource> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2022-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119070503.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
