Arranged as a series of eight lectures, Stanley Leathes takes upon the task of establishing John as a credible witness. Leathes examines the characteristics and structure of the Gospel of John, while expounding on the essential doctrines held in the text.
The excellence of this volume for popular purposes is—that it dwells largely on what may be called the internal evidence of the gospel itself. Its literary characteristics—which prove that the writer meant it as a history; its spiritual significance' the inward witness of St. John, are all discussed, and discussed in a way which seems to us conclusive.
