Understanding Symbolism in John

In this episode, Ryan and Brian explore symbolism in the gospel of John. This conversation is centered around a book "Symbolism in the Fourth Gospel: Meaning, Mystery, Community" by Craig Koester. They discuss how some individuals are representative of larger groups, the pairing of stories contrasting light and dark, and a myriad of other things.
