Jesus On Trial

If you think you have a grasp on the truths of the New Testament, it is time to take another look. Prepare yourself to receive a fresh perspective on the gospel of John as Dr. Eric Wallace expounds on the trial theme embedded in the Fourth Gospel. Dr. Wallace traces the theme of trial throughout John, examining the various witnesses who testify to Jesus' unique identity as the Prophet, Messiah, and Son of God. Wallace argues that the trial theme, grounded in the legal constitution of Deuteronomy, offers a new understanding and insight into this gospel. Jesus on Trial is a must-read for Bible scholars and students in Bible college or seminary. Pastors or laypeople looking for a more in-depth study of John will also benefit from this study. The author, Eric M. Wallace (PhD, Union Theological Seminary and Presbyterian School of Christian Education), is a Biblical scholar whose emphasis is on the New Testament, particularly Johannine studies. He has taught at Elmhurst College and North Park University in the Chicago metropolitan area. This monograph is taken from his dissertation "The Testimony of Moses: Pentatuechal Traditions and their Function in the Gospel of John."
