Description

A rich and comprehensive volume, essential for all those interested in how to read Luke as relevant for today.
In this sixth volume, the Scripture and Hermeneutics Seminar brings its past six years of work on biblical hermeneutics to bear on the gospel according to Luke.

Contents:

Narrative, History and Theology
Language, Parables, and Levels and Ways of Reading Luke
Distinctive Theological Themes in Luke-Acts
Issues in Reception History and Reception Theory
Afterword

In his introduction, Anthony Thiselton, world authority on biblical hermeneutics, sets the context for a wide-ranging exploration of how to read Luke for God's address today. Traditional and more contemporary approaches are brought into dialogue with each other as several top Lukan scholars reflect on how best to read Luke as Scripture.

Topics covered include the purpose of Luke-Acts, biblical theology and Luke, narrative and Luke, reception history and Luke, the parables in Luke, a missional reading of Luke, and theological interpretation of Luke.

Since prayer is a major theme in Luke, this volume explores not only the role of prayer in Luke, but also the relationship between prayer and exegesis.
