Excerpt from The Great Texts of the Bible: St. John XIII.-XXI He will soon be received out of their Sight, and they will no longer be able to grasp His hand, still Another Comforter will come and be with them, and lead them into the sphere of all truth. And it is love that breathes out the great intercessory prayer, that these disciplesmay be kept from the evil of the world, and enabled to realize their unity with Him and with the Father; Having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end, to the last, to the uttermost, till everything was finished. And at once He proceeded to wash their feet that He might Show the reality and the quality of His love. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

No other book of the New Testament has attracted as much attention from commentators as the Fourth Gospel. It has stirred minds, hearts, and imaginations from Christianity's earliest days. In The Gospel of John, Francis Moloney unfolds the identifiable "point of view" of this unique Gospel narrative and offers readers, heirs to its rich and widely varied interpretative traditions, relevance for their lives today. The Gospel of John's significance for Christianity has been obvious from the time of Irenaeus. It was also fundamental in the emergence of Christian theology, especially in the trinitarian and christological debates that produced the great ecumenical Councils, from Nicaea to Chalcedon. What sets this commentary on the Fourth Gospel apart from others is Moloney's particular attention to the narrative design of the Gospel story. He traces the impact the Johannine form of the Jesus story has made on readers and explicates the way in which the author has told the story of Jesus. Through this he demonstrates how the Gospel story articulates a coherent theology, christology, and ecclesiology.
