Excerpt from The Miracles in St. John's Gospel: And Their Teaching on Eternal LifeThis small book contains the substance of a series of lectures given in Oxford under the auspices of the Oxford Diocesan Church Tutorial Classes. The lectures were quite informal in character, more than half the time Of the class being taken up with the discussion of various points which arose in the course of the lectures.Matters of textual criticism, though they do not appear in the lectures, were sometimes raised, but the text of the Revised Version with the marginal readings, was taken as the basis Of the work Of the Class.I was able to give the members of the Class an outline of each lecture after it was delivered, and this proved helpful to them in their subsequent study of the Gospel. Requests were made, however, for the publication of the lectures in a permanent form, and the present book is an answer to those requests.I need only add that I am quite conscious that a study of St. John's Gospel along the lines here under taken may be open to the criticism that it gives only a partial view. At the same time I am convinced that it does provide a key for the understanding of the Gospel, and I trust that the suggestions may prove helpful to my readers as they were to the members Of the first Church Tutorial Class which I had the privilege of conducting in Oxford.Some articles of a similar character were published by me in The Churchman some time ago, and I am grateful to the Editor for permission to reproduce them.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
