Although many scholars consider Luke 17:22-37 to be "the most
important eschatological passage in Luke-Acts, " few agree on the
precise meaning of the enigmatic proverb which forms its conclusion
(Luke 17:37). Generally, Jesus' logion is taken to convey a macabre
image of impending judgement. However, this study offers fresh
literary, redactional, and historical evidence to suggest that Luke
recast Jesus' saying in order to describe something much more
glorious -- the deliverance of the elect. Examination of the
material elsewhere in Luke-Acts corroborates Luke's expectation of
an ethereal reunion, and suggests that this hope constitutes the
most characteristic feature of Lukan eschatology.
