Wilbert Howard was a noted expositor of the Fourth Gospel, and in this book he proved a sure guide for students and general readers through the mazes of historical and internal criticism as these affected the interpretation of this Gospel. His untimely passing has robbed the biblical world of a sure expositor and careful investigator. Mr Kingsley Barret has added sections of his own to take proper account of recent work on the problem of the Fourth Gospel, and has brought the new edition completely up-to-date in all respects.
