Originally arranged as a series of four apologetic lectures, J. J. van Oosterzee explores the authenticity, authorship, formation, and account of John's Gospel. Examining its relationship to the Synoptic Gospels, Oosterzee offers comprehensive analysis of the text.
Van Oosterzee is already known in America as one of the contributor's to Lange's Commentary. He is one of the most eloquent preachers and profound scholars of Holland, a little more than fifty years of age. The present volume is a course of lectures by him, delivered to a large and intelligent audience in the Odeo of Amsterdam with good effect.
—The Methodist Quarterly Review
The small volume before us is the production of a strong and cultivated mind . . . Nothing could be more able, seasonable, and complete.
