"The selected authors and their contributions do not represent a specific “school of thought” or even a unanimous trajectory of interpretation. This conscious choice of the editors is one of the strengths of the volume. The richness of approaches delivers very individual assessments, such as innovative arguments, new evidence, fresh methodological tools. Yet the editors still manage to hold all twelve voices in the same choir by thoughtfully organizing the book."
Piotr Ashwin-Siejkowski, King’s College London, Gnosis: Journal of Gnostic Studies 2


"This is a helpful book that brings together a number of foundational questions for studying John."
Mary L. Coloe, PBVM, University of Divinity, The Catholical Biblical Quarterly 79, 2017
