By drawing from the insights of Latinx texts and theology, this book reveals how the prologue provides a lens to read the entire gospel with a keen awareness of Jesuss engagement with people groupsfrom his own family to the Roman authorities. The prologue participates in the gospels racial rhetoric by shaping the readers racial imagination even before a person enters the narrative. By doing so, Jesuss identity becomes constructed and defined through racial rhetoric since the opening verses of Johns gospel.}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-20305-3}, recid = {1454064}, pages = {1 online resource}, address = {Cham, Switzerland :}, year = {2023}, }
