"He who follows me will not walk in darkness, but he will have the light of life." The Gospel of John is, for many Christian people, the most precious book of the New Testament.

Markedly different from the other gospels, John avoids the pithy phrases that identify the others. John's thorough and winning, yet confrontational, style is part of the reason that this gospel is considered to be so important within the New Testament.

In this second volume of commentary on John, William Barclay explores this gospel's implicit statements and clarifies meaning. Often referred to as the spiritual gospel, it is the book on which, above all, people 'feed their minds and nourish their hearts, and in which they rest their souls'.

William Barclay's world-renowned down-to-earth New Daily Study Bible commentaries - including his own translations of the New Testament texts - have inspired millions of people across the generations 'to know better their Bible, their God and their Saviour'.
