Considered one of the best introductions to Johannine study, Kysar's revised work brings the academic discussions up to date and now includes sections on women and postmodern approaches to the Gospel. His classic text offers accessible entry into critical issues of John's Gospel and a solid foundation for scholarly study, theological interpretation, and preaching. This book is addressed to the beginning student of New Testament literature. It does not pretend to be either technical or scholarly, but aspires to introduce the reader to the thought and symbolism of the Fourth Gospel as those matters are increasingly understood among contemporary New Testament scholars.

Robert Kysar is Bandy Professor Emeritus of Preaching and New Testament at Candler School of Theology, Emory University.

John, the Maverick Gospel has long been regarded as one of the most trustworthy introductions to the Fourth Gospel, paying special attention to the literary and theological dimensions of this Gospel without neglecting historical and other approaches. Robert Kysar, an international expert on John's Gospel, has now revised this useful classroom tool to bring the scholarly discussions up to date and to add sections on women in the Gospel of John as well as postmodern appraoches to the Gospel. This classic text provides an accessible entry into the important critical issues of John's Gospel, both on its own terms and in comparison to the Synoptic Gospels, offering a sure foundation for scholarly study of the book as well as theological interpretation and preaching.
