This substantial, reliable introduction examines the character and
purpose of Luke and Acts and provides a thorough yet economical
treatment of Luke's social, historical, and literary context. Karl
Allen Kuhn presents Luke's narrative as a "kingdom story" that both
announces the arrival of God's reign in Jesus and describes the
ministry of the early church, revealing the character of the
kingdom as dramatically at odds with the kingdom of Rome. Kuhn
explores the background, literary features, plotting, and themes of
Luke and Acts but also offers significant, fresh insights into the
persuasive force of Luke's impressively crafted and rhetorically
charged narrative.
