What first attracts the reader's attention is the subject matter of the Gospel; the confinement of the narrative to chronicling events which took place in [[Judea]] and [[Jerusalem]]. The Savior's labors in Galilee relates a few events, without dwelling on details, and of these events only two -- the multiplication of the loaves and fishes (6: 1-16), and the sea-voyage (6: 17-21) -- are already related in the Synoptic Gospels.

Compared with the other Evangelists, John chronicles fewer [[Miracle| miracles]] but concentrates more attention to the discourses of [[Christ| Jesus]]. The events depicted form a frame for the words, conversation, and teaching of the Savior and His disputations with His adversaries. In fact it is the controversies with the [[Sanhedrin| Sanhedrists]] at Jerusalem which seem especially to claim the attention of the Evangelist. John's interest is a highly theological one.

Even in the earliest ages of Christianity, the honorary title of the "theologian"  was bestowed on John. There are certain great truths, constantly referred to, in the Gospel which are regarded as his governing ideas, special mention should be made of such expressions as the [[Light]] of the World, the [[Truth]], the Life, the Resurrection.
