Resumen
CASAS RAMIREZ, Juan Alberto. THE FIRST DAYS OF JESUS ACCORDING TO THE FOURTH GOSPEL. A NARRATIVE APPROACH TO JN 1:19-2,12. Theol. Xave. [online]. 2011, vol.61, n.172, pp.369-396. ISSN 0120-3649.
This article explores the potential of the narrative exegesis applied to the dramatic sequence presented in Jn 1:19-2, 12. It proposes that, on the one hand, the value of such hermeneutical methodology for biblical analysis provides a particular dialogical dynamics in which the reader/listener -involved in the storyline- becomes a participant in the story updating it and compromising himself/herself to incorporate it into his/her own everyday life and his/her own social environment. On the other hand, this account, when analyzed, allows us to discern the paradigmatic process of faith proposed from the Johannine community; it starts with the testimonial proclamation and finishes with the act of believing by the disciples through the sign, and in the process it covers the personal encounter and the affiliation to Christ.
