John, Jesus, and History, Volume 4: Jesus Remembered in the Johannine Situation addresses the narrative development of the Johannine corpus over as many as seven decades. Contributors connect how Jesus is presented in the Fourth Gospel to how the memory of his ministry is developed in Palestine during the earliest period (30–70 CE), in Asia Minor in the later first century (70–100 CE), and in the main and alternative streams of post-Johannine early Christianity (100 CE and later). Contributors include Paul N. Anderson, Harold W. Attridge, Giovanni Bazzana, Jonathan Bernier, Sherri Brown, Rex D. Butler, Andrew J. Byers, Stephen C. Carlson, Warren Carter, Amber M. Dillon, Jonathan A. Draper, Musa W. Dube, Charles E. Hill, Karen L. King, Peter T. Lanfer, Kasper Bro Larsen, Ian N. Mills, Alicia D. Myers, Reinhard Pummer, Tuomas Rasimus, David Rensberger, Clare K. Rothschild, Geoffrey Smith, Travis D. Trost, Meredith J. C. Warren, Kenneth L. Waters Sr., and Lorne R. Zelyck. The collection pushes Johannine, Jesus, and early Christian history studies in new directions, raising possibilities for future research.

Praise for John, Jesus, and History, Volume 4
This impressive volume represents years of contributions from an international host of scholars and provides a comprehensive consideration of “the Johannine situation” in the first two Christian centuries. One is hard-pressed to find a lacuna in the subject matter, and the various chapters have been expertly curated by editors to create a volume that coheres internally. The essays gathered here demonstrate the true value of the John, Jesus, and History project. This book will prove to be a useful resource for years to come.
