Der Johanneische Pneuma-Paraklet Und Das Sokratische Daimonion: Zur Religionsgeschichtlichen Verortung Der Johanneischen Pneumatologie

The Holy Spirit plays a central role in the Gospel of John. Michael R. Jost first describes the Johannine conception of the Holy Spirit and then compares it with ancient Jewish and Hellenistic conceptions of spirit(s). For the first time, he considers in detail the so-called Daimonion of Socrates, revealing new insights into both the religious-historical context of the Johannine pneuma-paraclete and Johannine pneumatology.
