In Luke's vivid narrative, Jesus comes into Galilee proclaiming
"good news to the poor . . . freedom for the prisoners and recovery
of sight for the blind." More than any other Gospel, the Gospel of
Luke shows Jesus' great concern for the downtrodden, the oppressed
and the marginalized--including women and children and even those
outside the house of Israel. Darrell Bock shows why Luke's Gospel
is "tailor-made" for the world we live in--a world often divided
along ethnic, religious, economic and political lines. After all,
the Jesus portrayed by Luke is a source of unity for his disciples
and for believers from every walk of life. Tax collectors, Roman
soldiers, prostitutes, city officials, religious leaders, widows
and fishermen were among the diverse group brought together in the
early Christian church. Bock's dual focus on understanding what
Luke wanted to communicate to his original readers and on how that
message is relevant for today makes this an excellent resource.
