Items related to The Historical Reliability of John's Gospel: Issues...
From the early days of biblical criticism, the Gospel of John
has been the subject of intense debate. For many scholars, harmonising
John with the Synoptic gospels has proved to be impossible, and this had
lead to deeper questions about John’s trustworthiness as an historical
source for the life of Jesus. Craig Blomberg’s timely contribution is
prompted by the conviction that some recent scholarship is unnecessarily
sceptical of the reliability of John, and based on faulty presuppositions
and historical methodology. Furthermore, it disregards the majority of
mainstream biblical scholarship, which is more centrist, and in fact a
strong case can be made, on historical grounds alone, for an even more
conservative position.

Carefully researched and clearly written, Professor Blomberg’s
comprehensive, verse-by-verse analysis engages with the debates and offers
fresh, convincing solutions.
