Publisher's Description
This book is a devotional translation from the Greek text of the Gospel of John appearing in Barbara Aland et al.'s The Greek New Testament (5th rev. ed., 2014). Throughout Charles Comey's journey with cancer, he found comfort, strength, and inspiration from being able to return to John's Gospel each day and read devotionally in the original Greek and Hebrew while preparing this translation. The author hopes this book will serve as a reference for fellow Christians, seekers of the truth, and fellow travelers on life's long and sometimes lonely road.
Endorsements (3)
“The privilege to write an endorsement for Chuck’s book, The Gospel of John: A Translation from the Greek, with Devotional Reflections, is an honor and a gift from God. Charles “Chuck” Comey was a member of the Family of Believers of Tokyo Baptist Church. Chuck was a faithful servant of Christ in Tokyo during the years he and his family lived in the city. Our friendship extended from Tokyo to Tucson, Arizona, and lasted until Chuck was recently called home to heaven.”
“Charles Comey spent the last years of his life translating John’s Gospel while fighting a heroic battle with cancer. This book is an eloquent tribute to Chuck’s scholarship and courage. ‘Going through chemotherapy during Holy Week this year (2023),’ he wrote, ‘I’ve prayed that on the other side of this trial I too could meet Jesus on the shore in the beauty of the morning, and that he would likewise fix me a simple, hearty breakfast.’ Chuck realized that dream and has left us with this beautiful, nourishing meal.”
“Charles Comey’s new book, The Gospel of John, reflects who he is as a person: deeply thoughtful, tenderhearted, and passionately committed to following Christ. “John” is one of my favorite books in the Bible and Charles’ translation and personal reflections help to bring this gospel alive. You will enjoy having it as a resource in your own devotional life.”
