The Antagonism of the Hero in the Gospel of John

John six is essentially a nod to a heroic cult meal with sacrifice because in the life of asop and in these other Hellenistic novels that i mentioned it's expiate right as the god apollo kills him he dies for the god. So we've got that kind of echo of an escape code of an expiation so i really think that john six is pointing out this connection between myth and reality. trace this connection let me make sure i'm hearing you and then yeah I think that would be greatThis theme that we might find in the gospel of john that we find in these Hellenistic myths as well, says John Brandon.
