Description

In this “Theology Unpacked” episode, Dr John Moffatt SJ outlines how John’s Gospel differs from the others by presenting Jesus’ divine identity from the very beginning and shaping the narrative around festivals, signs, places, dialogues, and meditations that all reveal him as the Son of God.

Temple rituals, geography, and miracle “signs” are reinterpreted as symbols fulfilled in Jesus, while intimate dialogues and meditations invite the reader into deeper recognition and belief. The story builds toward the Passion, where unique features like the foot-washing and extended Last Supper teachings turn the Gospel into a sacred drama of revelation and glory.
