Examining the characteristics and language of the Gospel of John, A. Tholuck expresses critical interpretation on the foundation of Christian Theology. Examining the Greek and Syriac versions, Tholuck draws attention to key pieces in the text.
The commentary on John, though professedly exegetical in its character, contains much that appeals directly to the spiritual apprehension, but from communion "with the writer's own heart, and with the Spirit of God."
