Description: This study analyzes the rhetorical impact of the term sēmeia and the narratives it designates in the Fourth Gospel and investigates also the early reception of the Gospel among readers in the latter half of the 1st century. This angle of approach sheds light on some old issues in Fourth Gospel research as well as providing numerous points of interest and reflection for those who are interested in seeing the possible impact of the Fourth Gospel in our modern world.
