Quotes:
Eardman - “Its stories are so simple that even a child will love them, but its statements are so profound that no philosopher can fathom them.”
Redpath - “The Gospel of John is shallow enough for a child to wade in, and deep enough for an elephant to swim in.”
Phillips - “The basic structure is simple, but John surprises us. He says the simplest things, uses the simplest words, puts together the simplest phrases and sentences and at once plunges us into mysterious, mystical, mind-staggering concepts.”
