The Let's Study series is a welcome attempt by The Banner of Truth to encourage ordinary Christians to read and reflect on their Bible. Mark Johnston's contribution on the Gospel of John goes a long way to fulfilling that aim.
John's Gospel is divided up into 45 sections each of which is printed in full in the ESV (which, if recent EN correspondence is anything to go by, will delight some and exasperate others). Each section then has four or five pages of comment designed to point out the main thrust of the text and apply it to our lives.
