The Genesis of John

Fiction

“John is often considered the most ‘Greek’ Gospel for linguistic and philosophical reasons. Steven Grant, however, identifies traits and patterns that continue Old Testament thoughts and structures, not just culturally and historically, but philosophically and theologically as well. . . . Grant paints a picture of John living a very Jewish Christianity by combining dialogue, narrative, and expository commentary, transcending and transforming what readers may have come to expect from historical fiction.”
