Scholarly friends, this is a huge year for the 'John and Synoptics' debate - 4 books from 9.25-9.26: @goodacre.bsky.social 'Fourth Synoptic' (9.25), my 'John's Interpretation' (LNTS, 4.26), Anna Grottoli's 'Ancient Biography' (WUNT, 7.26), AND @drecorsar.bsky.social 'John's Reworking' (WUNT, 9.26)!
