In comparison with other aspects of Jesus' life and ministry, his
ascent into heaven has often been overlooked within the history of
the church. However, considering its placement at the end of the
Gospel and the beginning of Acts - the only narrative depictions of
the event in the New Testament-the importance of Jesus' ascent into
heaven is undeniable for Luke's two-volume work. While select
studies have focused on particular aspects of these accounts for
Luke's story, the importance of the ascension calls for renewed
attention to the narratological and theological significance of
these accounts within their historical and literary contexts. In
this volume, leading scholars discuss the ascension narratives
within the ancient contexts of biblical, Second Temple Jewish, and
Greco-Roman literature; the literary contours of Luke-Acts; and
questions of historical and theological significance in the wider
milieu of New Testament theology and early Christian
historiography. The volume sets out new positions and directions
for the next generations of interpreters regarding one of the most
important and unique elements of the Lukan writings.
