The narrative of the Gospel of John is examined through its portrayal of "the world" rather than focusing solely on "the Jews," which has led to accusations of anti-Jewish sentiment. Lars Kierspel argues that the text reflects a broader conflict faced by early Christians, highlighting the persecution and challenges they encountered in the Greco-Roman context. By shifting the emphasis from a singular blame on "the Jews" to a more inclusive understanding of opposition, the book seeks to reframe the Gospel's message within a post-Holocaust interpretation.
