OverviewThis volume presents a considerably collection of metaphors used in ancient Judaism referring to Tora. This sheds light on the imagery of the Fourth Gospel. Using ancient Jewish Tora metaphors, the Gospel of John centers Jesus depicting him as the one Tora of the Johannine Community. The Gospel itself becomes the written Jesus-Tora. Exegetical observations are made by contrasting the Gospel of John to texts from the Old Testament and from Hellenistic and Rabbinic Judaism as well. All is based on linguistic reflections on the phenomenon of metaphor and on the character of ancient Jewish and Rabbinic literature. The library of ancient Jewish Tora Imagery could even serve as basis to discover Tora Imagery and Language in other New Testament Writings.
