This study of the language of Acts is based on M. A. K. Halliday's
functional grammar, which offers a theory based on linguistic
choices and the effects they have on readers or hearers.
Interacting with selected interpretations from, among others, C.K.
Barrett, Ben C. Witherington, Jerome Neyrey, Jacob Jervell and John
Lentz, Martin-Asensio argues that transitivity ('who does what to
whom') emerges as a key factor in the foregrounding scheme of Acts,
and this analysis offers a linguistically based perspective on
Luke's overall concern to underline the supremacy of the divine
will on the stage of human affairs.
