John's Old Testament Lens

  • John writes with an Old Testament framework, so many phrases intentionally echo Hebrew scripture.
  • Recognizing those links reveals John’s cosmic portrait of Jesus as both Creator and fulfillment.
INSIGHT

John's Cosmic Narrative

  • John intentionally frames Jesus as cosmic: 'In the beginning' language connects to Genesis and Revelation.
  • His placement of the wedding feast and other signs shows deliberate theological architecture.
ADVICE

Start With Author Context
