Book Synopsis Luke's Pauline Narrative by : Graham Jackman
Download or read book Luke's Pauline Narrative written by Graham Jackman and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-07-09 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of the Third Gospel is based on two main ideas: first, that it is 'Pauline' and bears the imprint of the association between Paul and its writer, assumed to be Luke, and secondly, that it is a narrative, a written account that takes the form of a story. As a narrative, it is quite different from the argumentative, conceptual style of Paul's letters. This study illustrates how Pauline themes are 'translated' into the deceptive simplicity of narrative, giving particular attention to the parables.

Book Synopsis Luke and the Restoration of Israel by : David Ravens
Download or read book Luke and the Restoration of Israel written by David Ravens and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ravens argues that Luke's belief in God's restoration of Israel provides the key context for understanding Luke-Acts. His attitudes to Jews, his surveys of Israel's history and his interest in the Samaritans combine to suggest his wider, pre-Davidic, view of Israel-a view that becomes the pattern for the restored Israel under its Davidic king. Luke's belief leads him to present Christology and atonement in ways that cohere with Jewish hopes and to correct apparently anti-Jewish elements in Paul's letters and Matthew's Gospel. This theme also determines his account of the gentile mission and his pastoral concern for unity.
Download or read book Network Church written by Andy Lord and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-03-19 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pentecostal churches have grown over the last century but only a limited amount has been written about their ecclesiology. Much of the existing work focuses on congregational models and contemporary practice. This book argues the need for a pentecostal systematic approach to ecclesiology. Utilising the method of Amos Yong a pentecostal ecclesiology based on a network church structure is developed. Systematic issues of catholicity are addressed through mission insights on partnership, and a hospitable approach to contextualisation is developed. This book, therefore, suggests new ways forward in pentecostal studies and ecclesiology.
Book Synopsis Living Footnotes in the Gospel of Luke by : Luuk van de Weghe
Download or read book Living Footnotes in the Gospel of Luke written by Luuk van de Weghe and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-08-29 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did Luke interview eyewitnesses to write his Gospel? Living Footnotes in the Gospel of Luke provides a careful, thorough examination of Luke’s claims (Luke 1:1–4), demonstrating that he not only claims to use living sources but also did so. It builds a corroborative evidence case towards this end, not merely by accumulating unrelated strands of evidence, but by showing the interconnectedness of independent lines of subtle clues in Luke’s text. These historically rich, unintentional features weave together to generate a robust impression upon the reader: Luke not only relied on living informants but in fact sifted his sources in preference of eyewitness testimony.
Book Synopsis Pauline Christianity by : Christopher Mount
Download or read book Pauline Christianity written by Christopher Mount and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2002-04-01 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pauline Christianity takes a fresh perspective on the composition and reception of Luke-Acts in relation to the category ‘Pauline Christianity’ as it has been used to describe traditions, communities, and persons connected to Paul. This inquiry is pursued along three lines. (1) The reception of the Acts of the Apostles and the ‘Pauline’ Luke by Irenaeus is addressed. (2) The compositional intentions of the author of Luke-Acts in constructing ‘Pauline’ Christianity are analyzed. (3) The literary Paulinism of the author is separated from the Paulinism of his sources. This study contributes to the ongoing discussion of Paul’s role in the history of early Christianity by making clear the extent to which the ‘Pauline Christianity’ of Luke-Acts has its origins in various second-century attempts to reconstruct the Christian origins.
Book Synopsis History, Literature, and Society in the Book of Acts by : Ben Witherington (III)
Download or read book History, Literature, and Society in the Book of Acts written by Ben Witherington (III) and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-05-09 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These seminal essays introduce the reader to the interdisciplinary approach of New Testament scholarship which is affecting the way the Book of Acts is studied and interpreted. Insights from the social sciences, narratological studies, Greek and Roman rhetoric and history, and classics, set the Acts of the Apostles in its original historical, literary and social context; these methods of interpretation have not always been applied to biblical study in a systematic way. The discussions from a shared general perspective range over genre and method, historical and theological problems, and issues of literary criticism. History, Literature and Society in the Book of Acts is an interesting and valuable overview of some of the chief preoccupations of biblical studies with contributions from leading scholars in the Old and New Testaments and the history of antiquity.

Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of the Synoptic Gospels by : Stephen P. Ahearne-Kroll
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of the Synoptic Gospels written by Stephen P. Ahearne-Kroll and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 633 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The field of Synoptic studies traditionally has had two basic foci. The question of how Matthew, Mark, and Luke are related to each other, what their sources are, and how the Gospels use their sources constitutes the first focus. Collectively, scholarship on the Synoptic Problem has tried to address these issues, and recent years have seen renewed interest and rigorous debate about some of the traditional approaches to the Synoptic Problem and how these approaches might inform the understanding of the origins of the early Jesus movement. The second focus involves thematic studies across the three Gospels. These are usually, but not exclusively, performed for theological purposes to tease out the early Jesus movement's thinking about the nature of Jesus, the motivations for his actions, the meaning of his death and resurrection, and his relationship to God. These studies pay less attention to the particular voices of the three individual Synoptic Gospels because they are trying to get to the overall theological character of Jesus"--
Book Synopsis The Gospel According to Luke by : James R Edwards
Download or read book The Gospel According to Luke written by James R Edwards and published by Inter-Varsity Press. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 859 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new Pillar commentary devotes attention throughout to the vocabulary, historical background, special themes, and narrative purpose that make the book of Luke unique among the four Gospels. Though the Gentile focus of Luke is often held to be primary, James Edwards counterbalances that by citing numerous evidences of Luke's overarching interest in depicting Jesus as the fulfillment of the providential work of God in the history of Israel, and he considers the possibility that Luke himself was a Jew. Edwards also draws out other important thematic issues in excursuses scattered throughout the commentary, including discussion of Luke's infancy narrative, the mission of Jesus as the way of salvation, and Luke's depiction of the universal scope of the gospel. This readable, relevant commentary attends to the linguistic, historical, literary, and theological elements of Luke that are essential to its meaning and considers Luke's significance for the church and the life of faith today.
Book Synopsis Jerusalem Crucified, Jerusalem Risen by : Mark S. Kinzer
Download or read book Jerusalem Crucified, Jerusalem Risen written by Mark S. Kinzer and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The good news (euangelion) of the crucified and risen Messiah was proclaimed first to Jews in Jerusalem, and then to Jews throughout the land of Israel. In Jerusalem Crucified, Jerusalem Risen, Mark Kinzer argues that this initial audience and geographical setting of the euangelion is integral to the eschatological content of the message itself. While the good news is universal in concern and cosmic in scope, it never loses its particular connection to the Jewish people, the city of Jerusalem, and the land of Israel. The crucified Messiah participates in the future exilic suffering of his people, and by his resurrection offers a pledge of Jerusalem’s coming redemption. Basing his argument on a reading of the Acts of the Apostles and the Gospel of Luke, Kinzer proposes that the biblical message requires its interpreters to reflect theologically on the events of post-biblical history. In this context he considers the early emergence of Rabbinic Judaism and the much later phenomenon of Zionism, offering a theological perspective on these historical developments that is biblically rooted, attentive to both Jewish and Christian tradition, and minimalist in the theological constraints it imposes on the just resolution of political conflict in the Middle East.
Book Synopsis Luke's Rhetorical Compositions by : Paul Elbert
Download or read book Luke's Rhetorical Compositions written by Paul Elbert and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-07-19 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Luke’s Rhetorical Compositions offers new ideas in Lukan scholarship, especially in regard to Aelius Theon’s first-century rhetoric manual (Progymnasmata) and inter-textual, Lukan-Pauline, biblical studies. Two chapters deserve special mention: the material in chapter 3 is a groundbreaking discussion of Acts 2:38 in which its Greek verb tense speaks to the subsequent reception of the gift of the Holy Spirit following salvation, not coincident with salvation. In Acts 2:38 it is Luke’s intention to portray Peter as promising the gift of the Holy Spirit to hearers and to those beyond narrative time as a Pentecostal experience. Chapter 9 discusses Luke’s use of progymnasmatic examples in his descriptions of the salvation experience. It also discusses Luke’s clarification of Paul using narrative persuasion from Jesus tradition and history. Also, Luke’s use of basic soteriological vocabulary provides clarity and plausibility. His distinctive selection of examples from the Jesus tradition and his duplication of Paul’s soteriological vocabulary is very helpful.
Book Synopsis Q Or Not Q? by : Bartosz Adamczewski
Download or read book Q Or Not Q? written by Bartosz Adamczewski and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study analyses the current state of research on the synoptic problem and proves that the Synoptic Gospels were written in the Mark, Luke, Matthew order of direct literary dependence. Moreover, the work demonstrates that the Synoptic Gospels are results of systematic, sequential, hypertextual reworking of the contents of the Pauline letters. Accordingly, the so-called 'Q source' turns out to be an invention of nineteenth-century scholars with their Romantic hermeneutic presuppositions. Demonstration of the fact that the Gospels are not records of the activity of the historical Jesus but that they narratively illustrate the identity of Christ as it has been revealed in the person and life of Paul the Apostle will certainly have major consequences for the whole Christian theology.

Book Synopsis The Canonical Function of Acts by : David E. Smith
Download or read book The Canonical Function of Acts written by David E. Smith and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book of Acts was recognized as canonical throughout most of the Catholic Christian world by the early third century. Its canonization was due largely to its linking of the Old Testament with the ministries of Jesus, the Jerusalem apostles, Paul, and the "bishops" of Ephesus. In this way it functioned as a unifier of the developing Biblical canon and provided justification for episcopal hermeneutical authority. Chapters in The Canonical Function of Acts are "The Patristic Use of Acts: Late Second/Early Third Centuries," "The Patristic Use of Acts: Fourth Century," "The Patristic Use of Acts: The Works of Bede as Synthesis and Development," "A Comparative Analysis of the Apocryphal Acts," "Acts and Contemporary Issues," and "References to the Holy Spirit in Acts."
