Beschreibung
The Prologue of the Gospel of John (John 1:1–18) is one of the key texts of the Christian Bible. This polished confession of faith from the early church opens the door to understanding who Jesus of Nazareth truly is. Who is the author of the Prologue and how does it relate to the entirety of the Gospel of John? What significance does it hold for our lives and spirituality? Why is there no mention of Christ's cross and resurrection in the Prologue? What does it tell us about the history of salvation before Christ and the mystery of the relationship between God the Father and the Word Son? Ctirad V. Pospíšil connects the contributions of modern biblical exegesis with the brilliant intuition of the church fathers, masters of medieval theology, and teachers of Christian spirituality. Ultimately, he aims to bring the meaning of the Prologue into the lives of today's Christians, serving the faithful, the church, and the surrounding world.
