Gott als Vater der Junger im Johannesevangelium
by Frances Back
English summary: In the Johannine theology there are two prominent motifs: the notion of God the Father in contrast with the Son, and the idea that the believers are God’s children (John 1:12). But strikingly the notion of God as the father of the disciples is phrased not before John 20:17, in the context of the Easter appearances. In the present study Frances Back aims at determining the meaning and relevance of the Johannine motif of God as father of the believers by an analysis of the passages of the Farewell Discourses where the relationship between the disciples and God is discussed in the context of Jesus’ impending death, and by a thorough exegesis of the relevant parts of the Johannine Easter narrative. German description: In der johanneischen Theologie tritt die Rede von Gott als dem Vater im Gegenuber zu dem Sohn besonders hervor, ebenso die Rede von der Gotteskindschaft der Glaubenden (Joh 1,12). Doch fallt dabei auf, dass im Johannesevangelium erst in 20,17, im Rahmen der osterlichen Erscheinungen, explizit von Gott als Vater der Junger gesprochen wird. In einem exegetischen Durchgang durch die johanneischen Abschiedsreden, in denen das Verhaltnis zwischen den Jungern und Gott im Horizont des bevorstehenden Todes Jesu behandelt wird, und in der Analyse der einschlagigen Passagen der johanneischen Ostererzahlungen bestimmt Frances Back die Bedeutung der Rede von Gott als Vater der Junger fur die Komposition und Theologie des Johannesevangeliums naher.
