The Gospel of John: Insight and Commentary

Overview

John Charles Ryle was an evangelical Anglican clergyman and first Bishop of Liverpool. He was renowned for his powerful preaching and extensive tracts. In The Gospel of John Ryle delves into the gospel of John giving insight and commentary on this important book of the New Testament. I send forth the volume now in the reader's hands, with much reticence, and a very deep sense of responsibility. It is no light matter to publish an exposition of any book in the Bible. It is a peculiarly serious undertaking to attempt a Commentary on the Gospel of John. I do not forget that we are all apt to exaggerate the difficulties of our own particular department of literary labor. But I think every intelligent student of Scripture will bear me out when I say, that John's Gospel is pre-eminently full of things hard to be understood. (2 Pet. 3:16.) It contains a large portion of our Lord Jesus Christ's doctrinal teaching. It abounds in deep things of God, and sayings of the King, which we instinctively feel we have no line to fully fathom, no mind to fully comprehend, no words to fully explain. It must needs be that such a book of Scripture should be difficult. I can truly say that I have commented on many a verse in this Gospel with fear and trembling. I have often said to myself, Who is sufficient for these things? -- The place whereon you stands is holy ground. (2 Cor. 2:16; Exod. 3:5.) The nature of the work now published, requires a few words of explanation. It is a continuation of the Expository Thoughts on the Gospels, of which the first three Gospels, have been already sent forth. Like the previous volumes, the composition of this book is a continuous series of short expositions, intended for family or private reading, or for the use of those who visit the sick and the poor. PREFACE The Prologue to the Gospel The Testimony of John the Baptist Jesus the Lamb of God The Calling of More Disciples Turning Water into Wine Cleansing the Temple, Jesus at the Passover Feast Conversation with Nicodemus Further Testimony About Jesus by John the Baptist Conversation With a Samaritan Woman The Disciples Return Workers for the Harvest Healing the Royal Official's Son Healing a Paralytic at the Pool of Bethesda Responding to Jewish Authorities The Feeding of the Five Thousand Walking on Water Jesus' Discourse About the Bread of Life Peter's Confession The Feast of Tabernacles Teaching in the Temple Questions about Jesus' Identity Teaching about the Spirit Differing Opinions About Jesus A Woman Caught in Adultery Jesus as the Light of the World Abraham's Children and the Devil's Children Healing a Man Born Blind The Pharisees' Reaction to the Healing Jesus as the Good Shepherd The Death of Lazarus Lazarus Raised from the Dead Washing the Disciples' Feet Jesus' Parting Words to His Disciples The Vine and the Branches This I command you--to love one another.
