Bill said Superb Commentary. This is an excellent, succinct and accurate commentary on John. It is scholarly but written in a way that it is accessible at every level of theological understanding, from the new Christian to the scholar.. Stephanie said Excellent commentary on the fourth Gospel.. This is one of my favorite Bible commentaries. Ever. It was assigned reading in a class I took in college about the Fourth Gospel and I ended up reading through it twice more for my own personal study. It's a great tool that presents some wonderful ideas. Lincoln writes in a way that is accessible to anyone on a more advanced reading level. I'm no New Testament scholar, but I got through this book just fine, and enjoyed it a lot. It will be on my bookshelf for a long, long time.
