Focusing on John 9, this monograph employs premodern Christian exegesis to enrich New Testament studies. It critiques the two-level reading of the text as allegory, positioning it within the context of figural exegesis rather than historical reconstruction, particularly through Augustine's interpretation. By examining various premodern readings, it proposes a new understanding of John 9 as aligned with Greco-Roman rhetorical practices, revealing how the text's structure and theological themes are intertwined, particularly in presenting Jesus as the Light of the World.
