In recent years, scholars have explored anew the interface between
the early Christian movements and the Roman Empire. Once thought to
be quietistic, the early Christian movements turn out to have been
critical of the Empire and significantly counterimperial. This
collection of essays in honor of Robert Brawley turns the spotlight
on Luke-Acts. The soundings taken here disclose deeper
anti-imperial rhetoric than previously thought. In brazen and
subtle ways, Luke-Acts displays an alternative realm of peace and
justice inaugurated by Jesus under the God of Israel. The essays in
this volume will lead you to hear Luke-Acts in fresh ways.
