Description
Wisdom Commentary: John 1-10 by Mary L Coloe provides a unique perspective on the Gospel of John, exploring its connections to wisdom literature from the late Second Temple period. The author draws parallels between Jesus's words and deeds and the concepts found in books such as Sirach and Wisdom, highlighting how these intertexts shed new light on Johannine theology and symbolism. By examining the relevance of deuterocanonical texts like Sirach and Wisdom to John's Gospel, Coloe offers a fresh approach to understanding the narrative. This commentary features text from later wisdom books at the beginning of each chapter, helping to draw out the themes of Sophia that are woven throughout the Gospel.
