"Combining the skills of the teacher and the excellence of sound
scholarship, Sherri Brown and Francis Moloney have produced a fine
resource to guide students on their journey into the wisdom and
world of John. Brown and Moloney's big-picture approach embraces
Israel's story, Rome's world, and the church's beginnings as a
framework for a careful reading of the biblical texts. This is an
introduction filled with innovation and insight, a delight for
learner and teacher alike." Ruben Zimmermann

"In this exceptional textbook Brown and Moloney accomplish a
herculean task. They offer not only a full commentary and close
reading of the Johannine Literature (Gospel and Letters!) but also
combine this fine work with introductions to foundational
methodologies for biblical interpretation, the history of Israel
and early Christianity, and the Bible as Sacred Scripture. In this
way, they masterfully open up the world in, behind, and in front of
the text. Concluding each chapter with key terms, questions for
review, and a bibliography for further reading, the authors have
provided an outstanding tool for the classroom and beyond."
