John: An Introduction and Study Guide: History, Community, and Ideology
Book information
Description
This study guide introduces gospel of John, also known as the Fourth Gospel, from an ideological perspective. First, Lozada deals with the key historical questions about how we come to understand John’s historical identity. Lozada explores debates around how scholars construct a picture of who, where, when, and why John was written helping readers to recognize how scholars construct an historical identity for John. Second, Lozada introduces literary questions related to John such as its structure, plot, and narrative development, showing readers on how an ideological reading is constructed. Finally Lozada devotes three chapters to key ideological themes in the gospel related to otherness, such as the portrayal of women, the Samaritan woman, and “the Jews.” Cover Half Title Series Title Copyright Dedication Contents Preface Introduction 1 John’s Historical Background The Rootedness of John The Historical Identity of John: Fixed and/or Fluid Authorship Provenance Date Purpose Compositional History References Further Reading 2 John’s Literary Background: Plot Narrative of Unsettlement (1:1-18) Narrative of Travel/Crossing (1:19–17:26) The First Galilee/Jerusalem Cycle (1:19–3:36) The Second Galilee/Jerusalem Cycle (4:1–5:47) The Third Galilee/Jerusalem Journey Cycle (6:1–10:42) The Fourth and Final Journey to Jerusalem (11:1–17:26) Narrative of Resettlement (18:1–21:25) Preparatory Events (18:1–19:16) The Narrative of Death (19:17-42) The Resurrection Appearances (20:1–21:25) References Further Reading 3 John’s Characterization: “The Jews,” Women, and the World “The Jews” Translation and Meaning of hoi Ioudaioi (“the Jews”) Women in the Gospel The Mother of Jesus (2:1-11; 19:25-28) Samaritan Woman (4:1-42) The Adulterous Woman (or the Sexualized Woman) Mary and Martha of Bethany (11:1-46; 12:1-8) Mary Magdalene (20:1-18) The World References Further Reading 4 John 1:1-18: A World Split Apart Introduction At Home—The World Above: 1:1-2 The Word’s Crossing: 1:3-17 Returning Home—The World Above: 1:18 Conclusion References Further Reading 5 John 17:1-26: A Prayer for Unity and Community Introduction Jesus Prays for Himself (17:1-5) Jesus Prays for His Disciples (17:6-19) Jesus Prays for All Believers (17:20-26) Conclusion Further Reading Conclusion: John, the “Maverick” Gospel—Revisited Bibliography Author Index Biblical Index Subject Index

It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
