In this fifth volume of the Baylor-Mohr Siebeck Studies in Early
Christianity series, Michael Wolter provides a detailed,
verse-by-verse interpretation of the Third Evangelist's Gospel
(Luke 9:51-24). Wolter's commentary fully complements the great
tradition of "Handbooks of the New Testament" published by Mohr
Siebeck. Replacing the third edition of Erich Klostermann's
commentary on Luke, Wolter's volume rightly joins those by
Conzelmann (Acts), K?nsemann (Romans), and Lietzmann (1
Corinthians) in this venerable series. Wolter's approach to a
sustained reading of Luke's Gospel is comprehensive. He carefully
places Luke's narrative of Jesus in its cultural context, paying
close attention to the relationship of the Gospel with its Jewish
and Greco-Roman environment. Wolter performs form-critical and
narrative analysis of the specific stories; however, Wolter also
emphasizes Luke as a theologian and his Gospel as a work of
theology. Centrally, Wolter recognizes how Luke's narrative of
Jesus forms the first part of a unified work - the Acts of Apostles
being the second - that represents a new moment in Israel's
history. But in surprising new ways, Wolter makes clear that it is
God alone who works in and through the words and deeds of Jesus to
bring salvation to Israel. His commentary shows that Luke succeeds
in preserving the history of Jesus and its theological impact and
that this history stands on equal footing with the history of early
Christianity. Wolter's thorough, careful reading follows Luke as
the Evangelist seeks to explain how the fulfillment of the Old
Testament promises of God for Israel results in a parting of the
ways between the Christian church on the one side and Judaism on
the other. Scholars and students alike will benefit from access to
new German scholarship now available to English-language audiences.
