The Vision of the Beloved Disciple: Meeting Jesus in the Gospel of John
Search in google:
Imagine Being Able to Sit at the Feet of the Beloved Disciple and to learn from him all that he had come to understand about the mystery of Jesus, having lived so closely with the Lord during his life and having pondered the wonder of it all for many years after. Biblical scholars tell us that the Gospels are individual portraits of Jesus, each one portrayed from a unique vantage point. John's is an exalted view of Jesus revealing fascinating facets of his life and ministry very gradually, each element cryptically containing and pointing to the central mystery of the passion, death, resurrection of the Lord and his giving of the Holy Spirit. In this remarkable work, Father Montague revisits many of the most familiar passages from the Gospel of John and with rare and surprising insights helps us to see in depth much of what is hidden under the surface of these popular texts. He has managed to capture six facets of John's special vision: his own mysterious identity, the experience of meeting Jesus, Jesus' gift of the Holy Spirit, communion, the gift of Mary and the writer's approach to evangelization in a way that helps the reader experience the impact of John's unique vision of Jesus.
