Why did the author Israel Abrahams feel that the Fourth Gospel was the most Jewish?
Israel Abrahams did not elucidate his reasons, but it is believed that there are several reasons that he may have made this argument
- He spoke about Judea and described the geography such as how the Great Temple looked, which is particularly interesting given that those things were destroyed by 70 C.E. (John 5:2, 10:23, and 18:28).
- He discusses nuances of Jewish festivals (Sukkot in John 7 and the Dedication in John 10:22-29) as well as discussing customs and symbolism.
- References and Allusions to the Old Testament, such as John 10 to Ezekiel 34.
- Jesus debating in typical Rabbinical style (John 5:31-47).
Of course, most scholarship continues to argue that the Gospel of Matthew was more designed for a Jewish audience.
