Over the past two decades, Ruben Zimmermann has sought to advance Johannine scholarship in several respects and to challenge the scholarly consensus at various points. In this volume, embracing multidisciplinary approaches, Ruben Zimmermann considers Johannine imagery, parables, characters, Christology, and ethics in order to break new ground in the study of the Fourth Gospel.
