Paul N. Anderson, Professor of Biblical and Quaker Studies at George Fox University, along with R. Alan Culpepper, Dean of the McAfee School of Theology at Mercer University, are teaming up as co-editors of an important new monograph series, the
Johannine Monograph Series (henceforth,
JMS; Wipf & Stock).

What is distinctive about this series is the fact that Anderson and Culpepper are reintroducing important, seminal works on the Fourth Gospel and the Johannine epistles to a whole new generation of students and scholars. The first to kick off the
JMS series, and perhaps the most important commentary ever written on John's Gospel, is Rudolf Bultmann's,
The Gospel of John: A Commentary. I have had the pleasure of reading the foreword written by Paul Anderson, and it is simply the best evaluation I have ever read of Bultmann's commentary. This volume should be out within the month.

Other volumes slated for subsequent release in this series are:
D. Moody Smith,
The Composition and Order of the Fourth Gospel
Peder Borgen,
Bread from Heaven
Wayne Meeks,
The Prophet-King
David Wead,
Literary Devices in the Fourth Gospel (revised edition)
Michael Theobald,
The Lord's Sayings in the Gospel of John (revised, translated)
Anderson and Culpepper are to be congratulated on this service to scholars and students alike. I especially look forward to seeing Bultmann in paperback, a much more affordable venture!
This is great. Thanks for sharing. You might also be interested in the Brill Johannine Studies series (JOST), which will see its first volume published shortly. http://www.brill.com/publications/johannine-studies-series
