b'BIBLICAL STUDIESJOHN THROUGH OLD TESTAMENT EYESKAREN H. JOBESTHROUGH OLD TESTAMENT EYESA Background and Application CommentaryA New Testament commentary steeped in the Old TestamentThrough Old Testament Eyes is a new kind of commentary series that illuminates the Old Testament backgrounds, allusions, patterns, and ref-erences saturating the New Testament. These links were second nature to the New Testament authors and their audiences, but todays readers often cannot see them. Bible teachers, preachers, and students commit-ted to understanding Scripture will gain insight through these rich Old Testament connections, which clarify puzzling passages and explain oth-ers in fresh ways. In John Through Old Testament Eyes, Karen Jobes reveals how the Old Testament background of the Gospel of John extends far beyond quotes of Old Testament scripture or mention of Old Testament characters. Jobes discusses the history, rituals, images, metaphors, and symbols from the Old Testament that give meaning to Johns teaching about Jesushis nature and identity, his message and missionand about those who believe in him.Avoiding overly technical discussions and interpretive debates to con-centrate on Old Testament influences, John Through Old Testament Eyes combines rigorous, focused New Testament scholarship with deep respect for the entire biblical text.Karen H. Jobes (PhD, Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia) is Gerald F. Hawthorne Professor Emerita of New Testament Greek and Exegesis at Wheaton College and Graduate School.
