Book Description
Excerpt from Luke the Historian in the Light of Research The work of the last fifteen years has created new interest in the writings of Luke. The relation of Luke's Gospel to Mark's Gospel and the Logia of Jesus has sharply defined his own critical methods and processes. The researches of Har nack, Hobart, and Ramsay have restored the credit of Luke with many critics who had been carried away by the criticism of Baur, and who looked askance upon the value of Luke as the historian of early Christianity. It has been like mining digging now here, now there. The items in Luke's books that were attacked have been taken up one by one. The work has been slow and piecemeal, of necessity. But it is now possible to gather together into a fairly complete picture the results. It is a positively amazing vindication of Luke. The force of the argument is cumulative and tremendous. One needs to have the patience to work through the details with candor and a Willingness to see all the facts with no prejudice against Luke or against the supernatural origin of Christianity. It is not claimed that every difficulty in Luke's books has been solved, but so many have been triumphantly removed that Luke is entitled to the benefit of the doubt in the rest or at any rate to patience on our part till further research can make a report. Luke should at least be treated as fairly as Thucydides or Polybius when he makes a statement that as yet has no other support or seems in conflict with other writers. Modern scholars are no longer on the defensive about Luke. His books can be used with confidence. The work of research has thrown light in every direction and the story is fascinating to every lover of truth.

Book Description
'The Lucan problem has all at once become a burning one,' says a famous German scholar, Professor Ernst KÅ semann, in a recent book. Few English readers, it is fair to say, so much as know that there is a problem. This problem involves not only renewed discussions of the life of Jesus, but also questions about the apostolic Church--its gospel and preaching, its common life and ministry. This lecture first offers a short account of some of the most important recent contributions to the understanding of Luke's work, and then considers some of the problems afresh. What made Luke a historian, and led him--alone, so far as we know, among his contemporaries--to write the story of Christianity from the birth of Jesus to Paul's mission to Rome? How was his work affected by the example of older historians? What was his attitude to the theological problems of his day? What did he set out to achieve in his two volumes? What lessons may the twentieth-century Church learn from his work? These are among the questions raised by this lecture.

The Acts of the Apostles
Author: Osvaldo PadillaPublisher: InterVarsity Press
ISBN: 0830899804
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
The book of Acts is a remarkable fusion of the historical and theological, and its account of the early church has fascinated theologians and biblical scholars for centuries. Just who was the author of this work? And what kind of book did he write? How do we classify its genre? The Acts of the Apostles provides an advanced introduction to the study of Acts, covering important questions about authorship, genre, history and theology. Osvaldo Padilla explores fresh avenues of understanding by examining the text in light of the most recent research on the book of Acts itself, philosophical hermeneutics, genre theory and historiography. In addition, Padilla opens a conversation between the text of Acts and postliberal theology, seeking a fully-orbed engagement with Acts that is equally attuned to questions of interpretation, history and theology.
