In this addition to the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture, two well-respected New Testament scholars interpret the Gospel of John in its historical and literary setting as well as in light of the Church's doctrinal, liturgical, and spiritual tradition. They unpack the wisdom of the Fourth Gospel for the intellectual and spiritual transformation of its readers and connect the Gospel with a range of witnesses throughout the whole history of Catholicism. This volume, like each in the series, is supplemented by features designed to help readers understand the Bible more deeply and use it more effectively in teaching, preaching, evangelization, and other forms of ministry.

This book is a faithful reprint of the 1887 edition that explores the life and contributions of Elizabeth Gilbert, focusing on her efforts to support the blind community. It highlights her dedication and the impact of her work, providing historical context and insight into her advocacy. The reprint maintains the original content, offering readers a glimpse into the challenges and triumphs faced by Gilbert in her mission to improve the lives of those with visual impairments.
