He is also working on a book on the Gospel of John.After going on an Austin Seminary trip to the Middle East that Dr. Andy Dearman organized, Professor Donelson has organized his own seminary trips to Turkey and Greece. This means that he has spent a lot of time and energy in recent years learning the history and archaeology of these areas.
