In sum, Bennema has made a great contribution to the field of Johannine studies with this book on characterization. Alan Culpepper summarizes Bennema's book in his endorsement: "This is a book I have been waiting for - a comprehensive, sophisticated analysis of the characters in the Gospel of John. Bennema gives us the tools to advance both our understanding of John's gospel and the theory of characterization." I echo this hearty endorsement.
Applying a comprehensive theory of character to the Gospel of John, Cornelis Bennema provides a fresh analysis of both the characters and their responses to Jesus. While the majority of scholars view most Johannine characters as "flat," Bennema demonstrates that many are complex, developing, and "round." John's broad array of characters and their responses to Jesus correspond to people and their choices in real life in any culture and time. This book highlights how John's Gospel seeks to challenge its readers, past and present, about where they stand in relation to Jesus. No library descriptions found. |
