NT reviewr (2)
Gospel of John
1. “I am”
a. Book of Signs: “I am the predicate”
b. Book of Glory: “I am”; Moses echo; irony Jesus’ suffers
2. Xtology: high (starts with logos)
3. Minipoints
a. Explicated the implied themes of synoptics (e.g. Jesus as God)
b. Jesus seems not human: more human since he cried, he asks for love
c. Theological reflection in narrative form
d. Philosophical
e. Naming Jesus makes the namer subordinate (John the Baptist); He named himself… I am.
f. Symbol: Jesus himself is the symbol of heaven realities as kingdom of heaven is to synoptics
g. Full of irony: characters say things without realizing the weight of their words à reader elevation. (e.g. Pontius Pilate “What is the truth?”
