Gospel of John an Expositional Commentary: John 18 1-21 25 Triumph Through Tragedy

The Gospel of John: An Expositional Commentary #5

by James Montgomery Boice

This expositional commentary on one of the Bible's most popular books combines careful scholarship and clear communication in a way that informs and helps a wide range of readers, from serious Bible students to interested laypersons. James Montgomery Boice not only explains the meaning of the text verse by verse and section by section, he relates the text's concerns to the world in which we live, the life of the church, and the realities of the Christian life. He occasionally interrupts the verse-by-verse commentary for more extended treatment of key themes.Based on messages preached at Philadelphia's world-renowned Tenth Presbyterian Church, these expositions are ideal models for preachers and excellent resources for teachers of classes and small groups. There are five volumes in the commentary, each comprising a major section of the Gospel—The Coming of the Light, Christ and Judaism, Those Who Received Him, Peace in Storm, Triumph through Tragedy.An earlier edition of this commentary, based on the KJV text, was published by Zondervan in 1985. This edition has been totally redesigned and uses the NIV.

Well, today’s the day! I finally finished the last of James Montgomery Boice’s magnificent work on the Gospel of John. This series has been taken from 270 sermons preached from the pulpit of 1st Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia over a period of—I believe–eight years. Amazing! Well worth listening to and taking—as I did—copious notes. I’m moving on to another of Pastor Boice’s works…I just need to decide on which one!
