Description
For more than fifty years and for millions of readers around the world, the New Daily Study Bible commentaries have been the ideal help for both devotional and serious Bible study. William BarclayÆs brilliant communication, down-to-earth approach, and sheer enthusiasm have inspired generations of readers. These new editions contain a new foreword from renowned theologian and author Alister McGrath, along with updated language to clarify less familiar illustrations from the originals and the inclusion of more contemporary language.
Markedly different from the other gospels, The Gospel of John avoids the pithy phrases that identify Matthew, Mark, and Luke. JohnÆs thorough and winning, yet confrontational, style is part of the reason that this gospel is considered to be so important within the New Testament. In this second volume of commentary on John, William Barclay explores this gospelÆs implicit statements and clarifies meaning. Often referred to as the spiritual gospel, it is the book on which, above all, people æfeed their minds and nourish their hearts, and in which they rest their soulsÆ.
