Over the last two centuries, many scholars have considered the Gospel of John off-limits for all quests for the historical Jesus. The essays in this book, reflecting the ongoing deliberations of an international group of Johannine and Jesus scholars, critically assess two primary assumptions of the prevalent view: the dehistoricization of John and the de-Johannification of Jesus.

John the Baptist, forerunner of Jesus, son of Zacharias and Elizabeth-both of priestly descent-lived as a Nazarite in the desert, began his ministry beyond Jordan in the fifteenth year of Tiberias Caesar, preached baptism of repentance in preparation of the coming of the messiah, baptized Jesus, bore witness to Jesus as the Messiah, and was imprisoned and then to death by Herod Antipas. Jesus said of John, "Among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist." He was the last and greatest of the prophets (Matt. 11:13-14). Nevertheless, he stood, like Moses, on the threshold of the Promised Land. His garment was rolled in blood.

One such historical personage is that of John the Baptist, he who was given the heaven-sent mission-responsibility-to "make straight the way of the Lord.". This book's title embodies the well-known titles ascribed to these cousins: "The Voice" who is John and "The Word" who is Jesus.

For decades scholars have argued that Jesus' teaching fostered inclusive communities and the full participation of women. Now Kathleen Corley challenges the assumption that Jesus himself fought patriarchal limitations on women. Rather the analysis of his authentic teaching suggests that while Jesus critiques class and slave/free distinctions in his culture, his critique did not extend to unequal gender distinctions. The presence of women among his disciples, she says, is explained on the basis of the presence of women among many Greco-Roman religions and philosophical groups, including the Judaism of Jesus' own day.

Most experts who seek to understand the historical Jesus focus only on the Synoptic Gospels of Mark, Matthew and Luke. As such, the contributors argue for the use of John’s Gospel in Jesus research.
