Moonlight Shines in the Darkness

This Book May Change Your Relationship with the Bible … Forever

Moonlight Shines in the Darkness will open your eyes to amazing aspects of the Gospel of John, showing you how to read the “secret” language of the living Word of God.

The language of the Bible is the language of the soul, the language of symbols. Reading this language, Moonlight Shines in the Darkness reveals the profoundly meaningful feminine symbolism “hidden” in the Fourth Gospel’s images of Christ.

Praise for Moonlight Shines in the Darkness


“This book bristles with insights. I will never read John in the same way.”

Gregory Robbins, Department of Religious Studies, University of Denver


“Four things stand out. The first is the excellent Johannine scholarship … The second is [the] fascinating, even dazzling, history-of-religions surveys of Lady Wisdom, Demeter, Isis, and Dionysos. These are outstanding mini-essays on material that is so difficult to acquire and synthesize; and [this work] hands it to us on a silver platter. Third, is a host of small essay-like summaries of dozens of themes, issues, terms, and topics … Excellent writing [is the fourth] … [Neuwoehner’s] ability to make a sentence ring with vivid language is evident.”

Wayne Rollins, author of Jung and the Bible and Soul and Psyche: The Bible in Psychological Perspective


“… a significant contribution to the development of a Jungian hermeneutic of the inner shadow. This is a much neglected theme, or perhaps I should say, a completely ignored theme … [G]iven Jung’s theory of opposites, there must be a shadow side to everything. In the Fourth Gospel, [Neuwoehner] has isolated what that shadow side might be: the feminine.… This is an original and thoughtful study. I know of none like it …”

Walter Wink, author of The Bible in Human Transformation, Transforming Bible Study, The Powers Trilogy (Naming the Powers, Unmasking the Powers, Engaging the Powers), The Powers That Be, and The Human Being


“… [Neuwoehner’s] application of Jung’s insights to scripture … adds a new dimension to an appreciation of the Fourth Gospel. His identification of feminine elements in the Christological symbolism is an original and exciting contribution.”

Wallace Clift, author of Jung and Christianity: The Challenge of Reconciliation


“Dr. Neuwoehner’s study of the Gospel of John is so clearly written that it will be accessible to scholars, graduate and advanced undergraduate students, and educated lay people alike. They will learn with pleasure the major outlines of biblical scholarship on the Gospel of John, as well as a proven method of Jungian interpretation of the Bible.”

Sandra Dixon, Department of Religious Studies, University of Denver; author of Augustine: The Scattered and Gathered Self
