The Genesis of John: Novel Commentary

Do you think commentaries can be dry, overly technical, or boring? If so, at least two things are true. First, you’re right! Second, you’ve not read a Novel Commentary. Please consider this an invitation for cultural immersion in the first-century world of historical fiction to experience the transcription of the scrolls of Scripture. This first book in the series covering John the apostle, The Genesis of John, allows the reader to live alongside John and his amanuensis, Polycarp, while putting the Gospel account to parchment. This ten day ＂＂real-time＂＂ account provides an original outline for the Gospel based on John’s references to Genesis, a new ＂＂Hebraic＂＂ translation from the Greek, and fresh scriptural observations captured within the dialogue of the five main characters. Spend over a week in Ephesus and be both entertained and illuminated by The Genesis of John!
