He also served as senior professorial fellow at the Catholic Theological College in Melbourne, Australia, a part of the ecumenical University of Divinity.

Review Quotes: The manner in which Moloney contains the size yet incorporates major past and contemporary scholarship makes the book a valuable contribution to Johannine studies. His ability to draw the reader into the narrative is exceptional.The Australasian Catholic Record
