Summary | "Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech, 3 John" by Richard Francis Weymouth is an English translation of the biblical epistle, part of the New Testament, created in the early 20th century. This text aims to present the message of the apostle John in contemporary, accessible language, enhancing understanding for modern readers. The likely topic of the book revolves around themes of friendship, truth, and the importance of hospitality within the Christian community. The epistle is addressed to a man named Gaius, expressing deep affection and wishing him prosperity and health. John commends Gaius for remaining faithful to the truth and living in a manner that aligns with his beliefs. He encourages Gaius to continue showing hospitality to traveling Christian workers, emphasizing the importance of supporting those who spread the gospel. The letter also mentions Diotrephes, who has taken a position of authority and is acting against the teachings of John, hindering the reception of fellow believers. John contrasts this with the good character of Demetrius, whom he endorses as a positive example. The letter concludes with a hope for a personal visit and greetings to mutual friends, highlighting the significance of community and personal connections in the faith.
