<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A respected New Testament scholar offers a substantive commentary on the letters of John in the award-winning BECNT series.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Robert Yarbrough, coauthor of the bestselling <i>Encountering the New Testament</i>, offers a historical and theological commentary on the Johannine Epistles in this new addition to the BECNT series. The commentary features the author's detailed interaction with the Greek text, explores the relationship between John's Epistles and Jesus's work and teaching, interacts with recent commentaries, is attentive to the history of interpretation, and seeks to relate these findings to global Christianity.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>"The latest addition to the BECNT series is not narrowly exegetical but is intended to help preachers and general readers apprehend the message of 1-3 John for today. It offers a meticulously detailed study of the Greek text (including special attention to textual variants) that will provide students with ample information on every aspect of the argument of the letters. This commentary well maintains the standards that we have come to expect from this series."--<b>I. Howard Marshall</b>, University of Aberdeen<br/><br/>"By attempting to read 1-3 John in a fresh way, uncoerced by (though not uninformed by) scholarly tradition, Yarbrough offers a helpful and often different perspective on the Johannine Epistles. I find especially helpful his illuminating engagement with the history of interpretation, his careful attention to textual questions, and his quite insightful appeal to the language of the Greek version of the Old Testament (the background John and his audience shared)."--<b>Craig S. Keener</b>, Palmer Seminary<br/><br/>"Despite the author's modesty, there is no other commentary like it on these epistles; it relates the Johannine letters to aspects of Jesus's work or teaching and brings into play ancient texts as well as the latest scholarly research. Yarbrough also writes as a seasoned scholar with a pastor's heart and deep cross-cultural concerns. This rigorous yet very readable commentary is for students and pastors alike to guide their study and enhance their preaching."--<b>Graham H. Twelftree</b>, School of Divinity, Regent University<br/><br/>"Yarbrough's fine volume on the Letters of John is a refreshing and well-crafted commentary. I appreciate his informed discussions of the meanings and uses of Johannine terms, his overall canonical approach to these documents in his exegesis, and his concern to address the wider theological implications of the biblical text. This edifying and stimulating commentary encourages the reader to approach the text reverently and to respond positively to the word of God."--<b>Peter T. O'Brien</b>, Moore College, Sydney, Australia<br/><br/>"A model of evangelical scholarship. Yarbrough's thorough interaction with the literature, informative treatment of the biblical text, and clarity of articulation combine to make this commentary one that anyone interested in these New Testament writings will need to consult. This is a significant contribution to the Baker Exegetical Commentary series!"--<b>Philip H. Towner</b>, Nida Institute for Biblical Scholarship, American Bible Society<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Robert W.
