The Gospel and Letters of John

Volume 3: Commentary on the Three Johannine Letters
Urban C. von Wahlde
This radically new, three-volume commentary by Urban von Wahlde on
the Gospel and Letters of John is the most detailed study of the composition
of the Johannine literature ever put forth in English.
Many of the most serious problems involved with interpreting
John are due to the complex history of the Gospel’s composition.
Engaging the entire range of these problems,
von Wahlde exposes each of the distinct stages — and
literary strata — in the Johannine tradition and shows
how each represents a theological development beyond
earlier stages.
The result is not only the first “genetic” commentary
but also the first-ever history of the development of
the Johannine tradition — utterly groundbreaking
biblical scholarship.
Urban C. von Wahlde is professor of New Testament
at Loyola University Chicago. His previous
books include The Johannine Commandments and
The Earliest Version of John’s Gospel.
