The Johannine Epistles

By C.H. Dodd

Book Overview

The Johannine Epistles is a book written by Charles Harold Dodd that provides an in-depth analysis of the three epistles of John found in the New Testament of the Bible. The book is divided into two main sections. The first section focuses on the background and context of the Johannine epistles, including their authorship, historical context, and literary style. The second section provides a verse-by-verse analysis of each epistle, exploring the themes and ideas presented in each chapter. Dodd's analysis of the Johannine epistles is based on his extensive knowledge of the Greek language and his deep understanding of the historical and cultural context of the early Christian church. He explores the theological themes presented in the epistles, including the nature of God, the divinity of Jesus Christ, and the importance of love and fellowship among believers. Throughout the book, Dodd offers insights into the meaning and significance of the Johannine epistles for contemporary readers, highlighting their relevance for Christian theology and practice.
