Description: Dwelling in the Household of God moves us from seeing Gods dwelling place as the Temple to seeing Gods dwelling place within the community of believers.
Brief description: Mary L. Coloe, PBVM, is professor of New Testament at Yarra Theological Union, a college of the University of Divinity in Melbourne. Mary taught for over twenty years at Australian Catholic University and also at Boston College, the Jesuit School of Theology in Berkeley, and in Jerusalem. Mary has many academic publications on the Gospel of John, as well as books to help parents and teachers, such as A Friendly Guide to John, The Two Hands of God, and A Friendly Guide to the Birth of Jesus. Mary has also written an introduction to the Johannine literature for the new revised edition of the Jerome Biblical Commentary.
Review Quotes: Mary Coloe's study constitutes a valuable contribution to the literature on the Fourth Gospel, both its historical context and its relevance for contemporary Christian life. Happily, its price makes it available not only to college and university libraries but also to the wider readership it deserves.The Catholic Biblical Quarterly
