In "Word and Glory," Craig A. Evans argues that the prologue of the Gospel of John is rooted in early Jewish Wisdom traditions rather than Gnostic mythology, challenging influential theories popularized by Rudolf Bultmann. The work serves as a meticulous study of the exegetical background of John 1:1–18, emphasizing that the Christological concept of the "Word" was born from early Christian engagement with Judaism, not late first-century Gnostic sources.
