    Rhetoric and Drama in the Johannine Lawsuit Motif
    First, Second, and Third John
    • The book delves into the interplay between legal rhetoric and dramatic elements in the Gospel of John, arguing that these two aspects are interconnected rather than mutually exclusive. By examining classical literature, particularly Greek drama, the author highlights how legal motifs permeate the Fourth Gospel. Insights are drawn from works like Sophocles' Oedipus Rex and Aristotle's writings, revealing a profound relationship between the legal character of seeking and the evidentiary nature of Jesus' signs. This exploration enriches the understanding of Johannine theology and its inherent complexities.
