  This is a collection of commentaries written by the Brothers of the Taize community in France, focusing on the Johannine hours - the times of silence and sharing around the Word of God - which grew out of a need for spiritual nourishment in the midst of daily life. The name comes from John the disciple who, as a contemplative, listened in silence. As an apostle, he communicated what he heard. In silence, a Bible text is read and listened to with the help of one of the commentaries and questions in this book. Then each person has the chance to share with the others what they have heard in their heart.
