Description
2 volumes of Anchor Bible The Gospel According to John. Volume I is I-XII. Volume II is XIII-XXI. Volumes 29 and 29A of the Anchor Bible series. The translation-as Father Brown states at the outset-strives not for any formal beauty but rather for an accurate and contemporary version: "the simple, everyday Greek of the Gospel has been rendered into the ordinary American English of today." John chapters 13-21 comprise the Book of Glory (describing the Last Supper, the Passion, and the appearances of the Risen Jesus) and the epilogue to the Gospel. This commentary includes a special appendix on the Paraclete, in which Brown examines in detail the role of the Holy Spirit. Father Brown speaks to scholars and laypeople alike.
