Commentaries on John

Keith Mathison with Ligonier Ministries has posted his top five favorite commentaries on John. These are all excellent and I endorse the recommendation. Personally, I've been using Arthur W. Pink's Exposition of the Gospel of John and it has been superb.

Here are Mathison's top 5 in short:

1. D.A. Carson -- The Gospel According to John (Pillar New Testament Commentary, 1990).
2. Craig S. Keener -- The Gospel of John: A Commentary (2003).
3. Leon Morris -- The Gospel According to John (New International Commentary on the New Testament, 1995).
4. Herman Ridderbos -- The Gospel of John: A Theological Commentary (1997).
5. Andreas J. Kostenberger -- John (Baker Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament, 2004).
