John: NIV Application Commentary [NIVAC]

The Gospel of John is a genuine literary masterpiece. In the first instance it is simple, accessible, clear, and easily applicable. In the second instance, it is enigmatic in its wording, its oddly times historical references, and its controversial interpretation of events with an obvious theological agenda, namely, to convince you to believe and follow Jesus Christ.

In John [NIVAC] seasoned Johannine scholar Gary Burge unpacks the Gospel of John revealing a message that is as powerful, compelling, and transforming today as it was when John wrote the book. Indeed, Burge tends to follow John's lead by telling John's story after him while always pointing towards the Word made flesh, Jesus Christ.
