Program Unit Type: Seminar
Accepting Papers? No

Call For Papers: The John, Jesus, and History group will hold three sessions in 2015. One will be a major review of the contributions that have been made to the discussion of historical questions pertaining to John's gospel over the past twelve years. The session will identify major questions and help to assess new directions. A second session will continue the exploration of Portraits of Jesus in the Gospel of John, which began in 2013. Papers will focus the way early Christian traditions about Jesus as healer, Messiah, and Son of God are both preserved and recast in John. A third session will focus on either the Johannine tradition in a particular geographical context or on possible connections with other early Christian sources. All papers will be by invitation. We encourage those wishing to propose a paper in Johannine studies to do so through the Johannine Literature section.
