Beschreibung
This book offers sixteen chapters on the Gospel of Luke by Nico Riemersma, a recognised specialist on this gospel. It can be seen as the sequel to `The Gospel of Luke as Masterpiece: Structure, Genre and Way of Telling’. The author analyses seven miracle stories of the Gospel of Luke (8,22-27a; 8,27b-39; 8,42c-48; 8,40-42b+49-56; 9,10-17; 17,11-19 and 18,35-43), preceded by a chapter `How to understand provocative miracle stories? A reception-aesthetic approach to miracle stories’. Not only are Jesus’ works striking, but also his words. The author analyses three parables (10,30-35; 18,1-8 and 18,9-14) and two conversations of Jesus with his disciples (9,1-10; 9,18-27). The method used is that of `close reading’.
