  • More about The Use of the Jewish Scriptures in the Johannine Passion Narrative: That the Scripture May Be Perfected


Israels Scriptures inform the account of Jesuss cruciform death in the Gospel of John, providing the Passion Narratives veritable heartbeat and impacting the Fourth Gospels own self-understanding. David M. Allen examines how the use of Scripture in the Passion account impacts the Gospels own self-understanding, arguing that its capacity to pronounce on Scriptures fulfilment attests the Gospels own scriptural credentials.

Israel's Scriptures play a crucial role in shaping the account of Jesus' cruciform death in the Gospel of John. The book "The Use of the Jewish Scriptures in the Johannine Passion Narrative: That the Scripture May Be Perfected" argues that the Scriptures are the focal element of the Johannine portrayal and without them, John's Passion Narrative would not make sense. The book explores how the evangelists appeal to the fulfillment of Scripture and how allusions to the narratives of Creation and Passover provide the Passion Narratives with a veritable heartbeat. It also considers the impact of John's scriptural usage on the concept of Scripture itself, contending that Scripture is brought to perfection by Jesus' actions and to a new standing or status in this regard. David M. Allen examines how the use of Scripture in the Passion account impacts the Fourth Gospel's own self-understanding, arguing that its capacity to pronounce on Scripture's fulfillment attests to the Gospel's own self-avowed, scriptural credentials.
