In these essays, leading Johannine scholars explore the relationship of Jesus' resurrection to his signs, crucifixion, and the faith of later generations. The embodied quality of the resurrection and its importance for Johannine eschatology and life within the Christian community receive special attention. Studies explore the interplay between the Farewell Discourses and the resurrection narratives, the role of John 21, Jesus' ascension, and Jesus' commission to forgive and retain sins. The essays give a rich sense of the many facets of Jesus' resurrection and its importance for the study of John's gospel and Christian theology."--BOOK JACKET.
