Of these, Augustine's must count as the greatest. Unlike Origen's, it has come down to us in its entirety, and of the others that remain it is certainly the most theologically profound. John's gospel allows Augustine to range broadly over themes that were his life's work -the Trinity, the person of Christ, the nature of the Church and its sacraments, the fulfillment of the divine plan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 124 homilies that constitute Augustine's commentary, however, are masterpieces not only of theological profundity but also of pastoral engagement. In the question-and-answer style that he frequently employs, for example, one can sense Augustine's real awareness of his congregation's struggles with the gospel text. And the congregation's response to Augustine, which he frequently alludes to, is an indication of the success of his dialogical preaching style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Johannine literature drew out the best in Augustine. \u003cem\u003eThe Homilies on the Gospel of John\u003c\/em\u003e are the indispensable complement to \u003cem\u003eThe Homilies on The First Epistle of John, \u003c\/em\u003e published in this series, and they should be a part of any serious theological library.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10838262\"\u003eEdmund Hill\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10369074\"\u003eSaint Augustine\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New City Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/10\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 602\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.34d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781565480612\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1565480619\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-REL\"\u003eReligion\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-REL006130\"\u003eBiblical Meditations | New Testament\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-REL\"\u003eReligion\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-REL006070\"\u003eBiblical Commentary | New Testament | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-REL\"\u003eReligion\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-REL006400\"\u003eBiblical Studies | Exegesis \u0026amp; Hermeneutics\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New City Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42665482289389,"sku":"9781565480612","price":65.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_c0f7d070-0ce6-459f-b9a3-f0239baa75cd.jpg?v=1649421429","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/homilies-on-the-gospel-of-john-41-124-study-edition-9781565480612","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
