Description

This study presents themes deriving from the key contributions of the Apostles John and Paul to the New Testament. It examines the Gospel of John and aspects of the Letters and Theology of Paul. These cover chronology and authorship, contemporary contexts, use of rhetorical figures, the Christological hymns, and soteriological and moral concerns in the wider context of both the New Testament and the Old Testament. The approach is essentially synchronic, but also encompasses diachronic elements. Christological and tropological issues are examined afresh, especially in the light of the canonical approach, and in terms of imagery, symbolism and semiotic considerations.

The person of Jesus and the teachings of the Christian Church still raise many questions and controversies. This book re-considers some of these in the light of recent scholarship, and finds new perspectives on the themes arising from the crucial contribution of both John and Paul to the Bible and Christian witness generally.
