Gospel of John - SBSL Book (French, Print)

FRENCH TRANSLATION of the Sunset Bible Study Library The Gospel of John, by Doyle Gilliam.

The Gospel of John textbook was developed as a companion volume to the 24-lesson video series on the Gospel of John taught by Doyle Gilliam. As a result, the book closely follows what is spoken in the videos, providing the student who is watching the DVDs almost a printed transcript of the teacher's lectures. Also serves as a simple commentary on the book of John and an introduction to the book.

INTRODUCTION

The gospel of John has been called the most beautiful book in the entire world. The vocabulary of the gospel of John is simple. Its miracles and lessons from Jesus have delighted people all over the world, both young and old, in many different languages and in many different cultures. Yet in some ways it is a very profound book. This book has been compared to a pond in which a child can wade and in which an elephant can swim. On the surface it seems very simple. It is easy to understand. The language is simple. Beneath the surface there is a depth, a profoundness, that the most thorough scholars find as a constant challenge. Nevertheless, students are encouraged to study this gospel. The purpose of the book, the author of the book, and some of the main characteristics of the book will be studied in this chapter. Looking at the book as a whole will help the reader to understand the book as it is studied in more detail in the chapters to come.
