Seeking Truth Bible Study: Gospel of John (Chapter 1 Part 2)

After finishing the theme of identity, this lecture then turns to John the Baptist, whose purpose was to bear witness to Christ. John is the voice in the wilderness preparing the way for the Lord as prophesied by Isaiah. Sharon then focuses on typology: John, the new Elijah and Jesus, the new Moses. She concludes her lecture with the first of several examples of bridegroom imagery found in John’s Gospel.
