The Johannine Exegesis of God : An Exploration into the Johannine Understanding of God Hardback
by Daniel Rathnakara Sadananda
Part of the Beihefte zur Zeitschrift fur die Neutestamentliche Wissenschaft series
Hardback
Description
Johannine Exegesis of God is a stimulating study of the explicit and implicit theological language of the Johannine community.
It exegetically explores crucial questions concerning the Fourth Evangelist's language used to characterize God.
It makes a sojourn into the relationship between Johannine Christology and Theology.
It examines the dialogue dynamics of a theological conversation between those who do not share the same theological affirmations, and enumerates how the Johannine community derives benefit, becomes enriched and learns inclusiveness through its dialogue/conflict with its pluralistic environment.
In approaching and interpreting the Gospel narrative, the implications of 'Theo-logy' in the Johannine community's struggle for legitimacy, identity and existence become clear.
The Theology of the Johannine community shows a creative dialect with its sociological context, and its experiential theologising makes its theological language authentic, clear and precise.
