This second John volume runs from chapter 12 to the end: the anointing at Bethany and the triumphal entry, the washing of the disciples' feet, the long discourse in the upper room with its promise of the Spirit and the figure of the vine, the High Priestly Prayer of chapter 17, the betrayal and trials, the crucifixion, the empty tomb, the appearances to Mary and to Thomas, and the restoration of Peter by the sea.

Each volume in the MacArthur New Testament Commentary works verse by verse through the Greek text, explains the passage in its context, and presents its theology with precision, in the service of expository preaching rather than academic debate. The series is the fruit of more than five decades of pulpit ministry at Grace Community Church.
