What does Luke mean when he describes the Spirit as gift (Acts
2:38)? This study explores the social implications of gift-giving
in the Greco-Roman world, arguing that gifts initiate and sustain
relationships. Therefore, the description of the Spirit as gift is
inherently social, which is shown in the Spirit's empowerment of
the teaching, unity, meals, sharing of possessions and worship of
the early Jesus community. The Spirit as gift then leads us to see
that the early Jesus community is "the community of the Holy
Spirit."
