4. THE GOSPEL OF JOHN

Introductions & Overviews Raymond E. Brown & Francis J. Maloney, An Introduction to the Gospel of John (New York:

Doubleday, 2003). This century has seen a number of great commentaries on John’s Gospel (Bultmann, Dodd, Schnackenburg). Brown’s two-volume commentary, The Gospel of John, Anchor Bible 29-29A (New York: Doubleday, 1969-1970), was arguably the most famous. Whereas many scholars emphasize John’s difference from the Synoptics, Brown emphasized their similarities; whereas many scholars deny or downplay its historical value, Brown emphasized it. Brown was at work revising and updating his classic, but died before he could complete things. Maloney, a leading expert on John, brought Brown’s work to completion.
