This volume is much more than a collection of essays in celebration of Andreas Köstenberger’s prolific career in research and writing, particularly on the Gospel of John. It is a course in key issues in Johannine scholarship in its own right, written almost entirely by a cast of established scholars, some of them at the very top of their disciplines, who have specialized in, among other things, issues central to the Gospel of John. From up-to-date surveys of scholarship in certain areas, especially John’s use of the Old Testament, to ground-breaking treatments of more specific topics, That You May Believe offers the reader valuable contributions on every issue it covers.
