The Beloved Disciple as Interpreter and Author of Scripture in the Gospel of John
Seiten
Julia D. Lindenlaub stellt in dieser Monographie die bewusste Betonung des Johannesevangeliums auf seinen Status als schriftliches literarisches Werk nach dem Vorbild der autoritativen schriftlichen Texte im antiken Judentum dar. Die Autorin zeigt, wie die das Evangelium durch die Gestaltung der eigenen Autorenschaft sich in seiner Schriftlichkeit als "biblisch" darstellt.
Julia D. Lindenlaub presents the Gospel of John's deliberate emphasis on its status as a written literary composition as modelled on antecedent esteem for authoritative written texts in ancient Judaism. The gospel's creative representation of its authorship reveals a correspondence between scripture and gospel and therein an overlooked motivation for its preoccupation with the written medium. The Gospel of John attributes its authorship to the work of a "beloved" disciple, whose role in the story presents him as both writer of the gospel and competent reader of texts from the Jewish scriptures. The author evaluates this figure's interpretation of these writings alongside his claim to compose a text in the same tradition. The argument presented reveals how the gospel's concern for referring to its written medium distinguishes it as "scriptural" in the sense of its Jewish predecessors.
