3. powell opens the chapter on john with a few quotes from important readers of this gospel living in the second to the sixteenth centuries. many of them refer to john as a "spiritual" gospel. what does this mean? what evidence for a spiritual understanding of jesus and community do you see in the gospel itself? are there also passages that portray a "material" portrait of jesus or material concerns of the author and first-century community (e. g., dealing with concrete, physical, and bodily realities)? how might these two aspects of the gospel fit together in early christian understanding of jesus?
