| Summary: | This article critically surveys the rules that have been followed for ascertaining the subject of ... and explores the implications of the findings for interpreting John's Gospel and First Letter.

I discuss the implication of the syntax for the historical setting, purpose, and audience of the texts. I argue that the five clauses answer the Jewish question about the identity of "the Christ, the Son of God." |
