Abstract
Chapters 7 and 8 of the Fourth Gospel present a unified narrative focussed upon the issue of Jesus' identity. Abraham functions as a witness to Jesus' identity and relationship with Israel's God.

Abraham's testimony demonstrates that the traditions of Israel now find their fulfilment and perfection in Jesus.
