Short description:
Stephen C. Amador zeigt in dieser Untersuchung, wie Johannes die Frage des gerechten Gerichts zum zentralen Thema seines Evangeliums erhebt. Sein Ziel ist es, Urteile gegen Jesus rückgängig zu machen. Johannes macht kreativen Gebrauch von Prophezeiungen in Jesaja und borgt reichlich von synoptischen Passionswochen- und Gerichtsnarrativen. Der Verfasser zeigt, wie Johannes Jesus als den gerechten König etabliert, der vor dem himmlischen Rat gerechtfertigt wird und somit alle rechtfertigt, die an ihn glauben. The Gospel according to John has a thoroughly juridical character. John reenacts and corrects verdicts against Jesus in trials before Jewish and Roman courts. The issue is judging according to appearance or righteously, which permeates practically his entire Gospel. Stephen C. Amador shows how John establishes Jesus as the righteous King who is justified before the heavenly council and justifies all who believe in him.

Stephen C. Amador zeigt in dieser Untersuchung, wie Johannes die Frage des gerechten Gerichts zum zentralen Thema seines Evangeliums erhebt. Sein Ziel ist es, Urteile gegen Jesus rückgängig zu machen. Johannes macht kreativen Gebrauch von Prophezeiungen in Jesaja und borgt reichlich von synoptischen Passionswochen- und Gerichtsnarrativen. Der Verfasser zeigt, wie Johannes Jesus als den gerechten König etabliert, der vor dem himmlischen Rat gerechtfertigt wird und somit alle rechtfertigt, die an ihn glauben. Ever since Théo Preis' essay in the 1946 Karl Barth Festschrift, the Fourth Gospel's cosmic trial concept has proved elusive. Stephen C. Amador demonstrates that John makes the issue of righteous judgment the central focus of his gospel. Jesus is portrayed in the Johannine Hour of Justification to be all that he claims. John's goal is to revise trial verdicts against Jesus. He makes creative use of Isaiah prophesies (especially Isa 11 and 53) and borrows heavily from synoptic passion week and trial narratives. John wishes to demonstrate that Jesus is vindicated regarding his claims as the Sent One of his Father and is therefore the Christ. Jesus is glorified and thereby juridically justified by his Father before the heavenly tribunal. The trial Jesus carries out amid being tried himself is continued by the Spirit-Paraclete on behalf of the messianic, justified King of Israel in the aftermath of Jesus' departure and resurrection.
