"The more we study John, the more wealth arises out of it," says William Barclay about the fourth gospel. In this volume, Dr. Barclay completes his intensive study begun in the Gospel of John, Volume 1 (that covers chapters 1 through 7) and helps give the reader a sharpened perception of the emphases of this gospel. Written during a time when heresies abounded, the Gospel of John clarifies both the humanity and deity of Jesus Christ.
