In the first volume of this long-anticipated collection by Moessner
and Tiede, seventeen leading scholars of antiquity present an
amazing sea change of opinion that Luke is indeed the interpreter
of Israel. The book represents an unprecedented international
consensus that the Hellenistic author Luke composed a carefully
crafted narrative in two parts to claim Jesus of Nazareth as
Israel's true heritage and enduring legacy to the world. Part One
explores the nature of Luke's prologues and his intention to write
a narrative of events brought to fruition, using the narrative
conventions and audience expectations of the Greco-Roman milieu.
Part Two illuminates the relation of Luke's second volume to the
first by inquiring about the consistency and coherence of his
narrative-thematic strategies in retelling the story of Israel's
legacy of the Christ. Whether Luke completed Acts, the larger role
of Paul and, most significantly, the meaning of Israel by the end
of Acts are approached from new perspectives and charged with
provocative insights. In addition to the volume editors, the
contributors include L. Alexander, D. Schmidt, V. Robbins, C.
Thornton, R. Pervo, W. Kurz, C. Holladay, G. Sterling, D. Balch, E.
Pl++macher, Charles H. Talbert, J.H. Hayes, D. Marguerat, M.
Wolter, R. Tannehill, and I. H. Marshall. David P. Moessner is
Professor of Biblical Theology at the University of Dubuque
Theological Seminary.
