Biblical Theological Investigations into the Incomprehensibility of God draws readers into the profound attribute of God’s incomprehensibility as witnessed in the unfolding narrative of Scripture. While systematic theology has long affirmed the incomprehensibility of God, this volume breaks new ground by exploring this attribute through the lens of biblical theology, tracing its expression in specific texts of the Old and New Testaments. Originating from the 2024 EABS conference in Sofia, the chapters in this volume represent research by scholars who examine how biblical texts portray God as both revealed and ultimately unfathomable by means of detailed exegetical studies.
The language of the Gospel of John is known for its complexity. On the basis of the modern standards of transparency and logic, previous scholars have depicted this language as obscure, confusing, and mysterious.

Paul Creevey considers the central question: Can one simply assume that the story of the burial, empty tomb, and appearance narratives in John's Gospel are a literary unity? There are many issues in coherence and cohesion that have led to a wide number of interpretations given to many different aspects of the text that is John 19:37–20:29. It is also widely recognized that John's retelling of these events are distinctive. Creevey analyses the text of John 19:37–20:29, showing that the Johannine Evangelist has created a two-part tripartite defense of two central aspects of Christian faith: the case for the empty tomb and the case for the appearance narratives. Using internal literary evid...
