Review from previous edition Hill's defence of the dissident view extends to 400 pages of lean argument, which prove that when evidence speaks for itself it speaks in favour of the antiquity and early diffusion of all the Johannine writings.

The Catholic Biblical Quarterly Seldom does one encounter a book that both challenges so trenchantly perspectives advocated by so many and makes the case so persuasively.
