This book is for people who are interested in Luke and the law, and
specifically in Acts 15. For all students writing papers related to
Luke and the law or Acts 15 and especially for professors who are
teaching Acts, this is a book they must consider. This work
provides a new approach to reading Acts 15. It reads both Peter's
and James' speeches in Acts 15 in light of Jesus' view of the law
in the Gospel of Luke. For example, this book proposes that Peter's
reference to God's cleansing the heart of the Gentile believers, in
conjunction with his speaking of the Jews' inability to do the law
in Acts 15:9-10, should be understood against Luke 11:37-41. This
book also proposes that in James' use of Amos 9:11-12 (in Acts
15:16-17), he recalls Jesus' stress upon his name in Luke 24. In
Luke 24:47-48, Jesus explains that the Scriptures (the law of
Moses, prophets, and Psalms) speak of the preaching of repentance
for the forgiveness of sins in his name to all nations.
