Description and Table of Contents
Description
This work presents a first-class study of Old Testament covenant theology which breaks new ground in Johannine scholarship. It provides a detailed interpretation of the discipleship narratives and discourses in John's Gospel. It investigates Old Testament discipleship motifs, sets the Johannine community within the Jewish world, and argues that according to the "Gospel of John", the relationship with God that had defined Israel as a people of God also defines the disciples of Jesus.
